Collecting Results

We would like to take this opportunity to again congratulate all students for their commitment to their exams this summer.  

 

We thought we would send a timely reminder of some key information around collecting results.  

 

Collecting Results

 

We are only able to share examination results with students directly. We are not able to share these with Parents/Carers without student consent. These are examination regulations. Parents/Carers are more than welcome to attend school with their child on results day.

 

Key dates:

  • Level 1/2 results (GCSE) are available for collection at 9am on Thursday 20th August 2026 from the Main Hall (enter through reception)

  • Level 3 results (A level) are available for collection at 9am on Thursday 13th August 2026 from the Main Hall (enter through reception)

 

If students are not able to collect results in person, there are several options:

  • Someone else can collect these results on behalf of the student. To do this, the nominated person must bring a signed and dated statement from the student to this effect.  The student must write a statement stating their full name and who will be collecting the results on their behalf. The nominated person collecting the results must bring photographic ID for both the student and themselves.

  • Results will be emailed to students’ school email accounts late morning or early afternoon on the day of results. 

 

Until 11am on the morning of results, there will be key staff available to speak to should you have any queries regarding your results.

 

Post Results Services

 

Following the collection of results there are several services on offer for a few weeks after results day. We will share information on how to access both these services on results day:

 

  • Access to script to support review of marking or to support teaching and learning

    • This service also allows you and the College access to a script to support a decision as to whether or not to request a Review of Results (information in the next section of the letter).

    • This service also allows us, with your permission, to view a copy of your exam script to use in the classrooms and by curriculum teams to support teaching and learning. This will help us improve our practice regarding teaching and marking for following years. We encourage all students to provide permission for us to access their scripts.

​​

Deadline: Friday 11th September 2026 5pm.

 

  • Review of Results

    • Service 1: Clerical re-check

      • This service will include the following checks:

        • that all parts of the script have been marked

        • the totalling of marks

        • the recording of marks

​​

  • Service 2: Review of Marking

    • This is a post-results review of the original marking to ensure that the mark scheme has been applied correctly.

    • A marking error can occur because of:

      • an administrative error

      • a failure to apply the mark scheme where a task has only a ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ answer

      • an unreasonable exercise of academic judgement

    • The awarding body will train its reviewers to conduct reviews of marking accurately and consistently.

    • Reviewers will not re-mark the script. They will only act to correct any errors identified in the original marking.

    • It should be noted that with these services grades can go up as well as down. If your grade goes up, then a refund is provided from the exam board (note this is done on an individual paper basis rather than qualification).

    • If you wish to proceed with this, please fill in this form and make the appropriate payment to the finance office (please telephone them via main college reception between 09:00 & 16:00 or pay on parent pay – any queries about payments, please speak to the exams office in the first instance). The cost depends on the level of qualification, service required and exam board - these are identified below.

    • Please note that if neither the payment, or the form is complete, then the request will not be put through.

    • Once this process has started, it is impossible to revert the decision to progress with this service.

    • If you would like to pursue this service, we would suggest you discuss these further in advance by contacting exams@eggbuckland.com. 

​​

Deadline: Friday 18th September 2026 5pm (for ROR Priority Service 2 (GCE AS, A-level and Level 3 VTQ), ideally please speak to the examinations office on results day due to the deadlines required).

 

Costs for these services are shown overleaf and can be made through ParentPay.

 

Certificates, provided from the exam boards, are usually with us for your collection around January 2027 and kept by us for a limited period. We will be in contact via parent/carer email addresses when these are available for your collection.

 

If you have any queries regarding any of this information, please email exams@eggbuckland.com .
