Summer 2025 GCSE certificates are now available to collect from the SC Mon-Fri 7.45am - 3pm.
Please note the following when collecting certificates:
You will need to sign for them.
If you are unable to collect your own certificates you can ask someone to collect for you. Please email the exams team at HPS-exams@heyford.epatrust.org giving your authorisation for a third party to collect your certificates and include their details. The certificates will not be released without prior emailed authorisation from you.
We strongly recommend you collect your certificates as replacements can only be obtained from the Awarding Bodies and cost approximately £50.00 each to replace.
We currently have many old uncollected certificates so please check with us first if you haven’t ever collected them and now need them from previous years.

Year 11 students receive an exam handbook; this contains useful information on how the school run public exams and the expectations on our students. The handbook also contains links to the JCQ (Joint Council for Qualifications) exam documents and notices. An electronic copy of the handbook is available to download and can be accessed below.
