Public exams mark an important milestone in the lives of our students, so it is important that students, parents and carers are well informed about how these assessments are managed at Icknield. We make every effort to ensure that students are thoroughly prepared for their exams and, as with all of our work, we always consider and plan for how to best support our students during this time.
Please don't hesitate to contact us during school hours if you have any queries.
