Public Examinations

Students must sign in via reception with their ID card. 

The John Warner School is currently approved as a centre for four examination boards:

• Edexcel
• Assessment and Qualifications Alliance (AQA)
• OCR
• Welsh Joint Education Committee
• NCFE

This means that The John Warner School has access to all of the courses run by these boards and the associated assessments – usually examinations. Departments choose the courses they wish to follow and most choose courses from the first three in the list.

General Certificate of Secondary Education

All students sit GCSE exams at the end of Year 11. For one or two qualification units may be taken during Year 10.
