Year 9 - End of KS3 Tests -Students sit papers in Mathematics, Science and English. The tests take place in March.
The tests will be run under formal exam conditions, similarly to GCSE exams. This is to start to prepare the students for exams when they are in Years 10 and 11. Students must bring in the correct equipment for each subject in a clear pencil case or plastic bag. Black ballpoint pens must be used in all formal exams, students should have at least two black pens with them. Water bottles are allowed but must not have labels or writing on them and should be clear. No food is allowed in exam rooms.
Students must not have a mobile phone or a wristwatch (digital or analogue), whether switched on or off, or any headphones / earpods in their possession in an exam room. Any phones or electronic devices found on a student in an exam room will result in that paper being cancelled.
