Exam Week: June 24 - June 28
June 24- June 26 are the last scheduled exam days; students may arrive at 8:30 am when they have a scheduled exam. If students do not have an exam scheduled, they are not expected to be in school. Students may prearrange with teachers a time to meet for additional support for exam prep but they shouldn’t just drop in as teachers will be supervising exams at schedule times. Diploma exams’ dates cannot be changed so students who miss the exam or arrive more than an hour late will have to take the exam in August at an alternative location. If students are absent from Grade 9 PATs we can only arrange an alternative sitting up until Thursday June 20th. For school exams we can arrange an alternative sitting up until Wednesday June 26th. Please let the school office know prior to 8.30am if a student will be absent for an exam. Students should come prepared to an exam with pens, pencils, calculators and anything else they have been advised to bring by their teachers.
The exam timetable is available on our website and displayed around the school for students.
