Summer external exams and half term revision

Exam season is now underway for Y13 and some Y12 students. There are many external exams during the next few weeks across our full range of qualifications. The full timetable PDF can be accessed here: https://www.laswap.camden.sch.uk/external-exams/

A few reminders for families and students:

• All students have been issued with an exam timetable.
• All exams are taken in the school where the subject is studied.
• Students must register 30 minutes before the start of the exam.
• Students with clashes have been given information and instructions. Please follow these carefully!

If you have any questions about exams, please contact Mr Ali or Mr Stokes.

Webinar: navigating Clearing for Y13 students and families

Wednesday 17 June, 6pm

https://zoom.us/j/97377950493?pwd=VYT0xPoZvuB0u2sasbqVix4zXWHEDa.1

Join us for a webinar on the UCAS Clearing process. We will cover what Clearing is, how to use it, what courses and universities are available, how to prepare and more. There will be time for questions, and the webinar will be recorded for those who can't make it live.

Y12 University Open Days

Most universities run their open days between May and July, with a few more opportunities in October and November. Students should make sure they visit several universities to get a feel for what kinds of universities and courses are available and where will suit them. It is impossible to tell by reading a website!

You can find listings for all upcoming open days in UCAS: https://www.ucas.com/explore/search/events?query=university%20open%20days
