Booking an Exam
Access Arrangements
Regrettably due to recent updates to the JCQ regulations, we are no longer able to offer access arrangements to private candidates. The only exception to this is the use of a mobile phone as a diabetic monitor. You will need to state the need for this on your application form so we are able to make suitable arrangements.
Please only complete an application form if you are happy to go ahead without access arrangements (these include but are not limited to: extra time, rest breaks, separate invigilation).
Exams we cannot accept applications for
We are unable to accept applications that have a practical element such as Science, Art, and Languages. The only sciences we can offer are iGCSEs as there is no practical portion.
November 2026 and Summer 2027
Exam applictions for November will open on 2nd September 2026. Please check back then to submit an application. Summer 2027 exams bookings will open later in the month, check back for the date.
Submitting an application form does not guarantee you a place. Your exam booking will only be confirmed once an invoice has been issued and full payment has been received. Places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Applications received after an exam has reached capacity will be placed on a waiting list, and we will notify you accordingly.
