Appeals
Appeals this year work slightly differently to a normal summer. JCQ has provided a guide for students and parents found here:
Should you wish to make an appeal following your A level or GCSE results, please contact the school using the following email address: examSVA@sawtryva.org and attach your completed appeals form for phase 1 – Centre Review to the email:
The deadline for the parental submission of priority appeals is 16th August.
The deadline for non-priority appeals is 3rd September.
We strongly encourage any student and parent wishing to submit an appeal to do so on the day of results, and ideally by the 13th August in order to provide sufficient time for staff to process the appeals fully.
The Trust Examination Policy Appendix 2 shows the Exam Contingency Plan.
