GCSE Exam Results Day - 24th August 2023

Please find below details of how to accept or decline your place at BWS Sixth Form on GCSE Results Day (24th August 2023), and how to request to study a fourth A-Level.

1. Letting us know if you want to do a fourth A-Level (prior to results day)

Students who receive a grade average of 7.5 points or above may choose to do a fourth A-Level instead of EPQ, core maths or music AS. If you wish to do a fourth A-Level, please fill in this form prior to results day to specify your choice of subject: https://forms.office.com/e/ZWEUtiWRAX

If you do not wish to take a fourth A-Level, you do not need to complete this form – most students do not take four A-levels due to the increased workload and commitment that is required. Please think carefully before you choose this option.

2. Collecting your results (on results day)

Students not currently attending BWS should refer to their school for details on how to collect their GCSE results.

For BWS students. Examination results will be available via BromCom VLE (https://www.bromcomvle.com/) account from 8.00am on Thursday 24th August.

5. Coming in to school

BWS Sixth Form will be open from 9am to 2pm on GCSE results day, and by appointment only after 2pm (appointments can be made by emailing sixth@bishopwordsworths.org.uk). If you have any problems or queries, or are confused about your A-Level choices, please come in via the Exeter Street entrance and speak to a member of our team.

What to do if…

• You wish to change subjects: Students who wish to change subjects should upload their results and confirm their place as above, and then come into school so that we can make the appropriate changes.
• You have a 7.5 average points score and want to take a fourth A-Level: Please confirm which subject you would like to do in advance of results day using this form – you don’t need to do anything else, we will timetable you into that subject on results day once you have submitted confirmation of your grades. Places will be allocated after 3pm on results day so we cannot give final confirmation until then.
• Form to request a fourth A-Level: https://forms.office.com/e/ZWEUtiWRAX
• You are on a waiting list for an oversubscribed subject: We will allocate spare places after 3pm on results day. This is done in strict order of your position on the waiting list, and we will confirm if you have a place on your chosen subject as soon as we can.
• You no longer wish to accept your place at BWS: Please use this form to let us know you no longer want us to hold a place for you - https://forms.office.com/e/QrL5CXFqbb
• You are confused about your A-Level choices: If you are accepting a place at BWS Sixth Form, you can come into school and see Mrs Armstrong for guidance. An appointment is not necessary. If you are not coming to BWS (declined the place or not met the required grades), please contact the careers adviser at your current school.
• You have not achieved the required grades for BWS: Unfortunately, we are oversubscribed this year. It is unlikely we will be able to take any students without the required grades. If you need support deciding what to do next, please contact the careers adviser at your current school (for BWS students, this is Mrs Armstrong who will be available from 8.30am-2pm on Results Day).
• You cannot get into school to make the appropriate changes to your courses: Please let us know in advance if you are aware this might happen. Otherwise, please email sixth@bishopwordsworths.org.uk, we will deal with your email as soon as we can.
