Careers Information for Year 11 and Year 13 Students from Ms Jeffries
Year 13 students
Ms Jefferies and the Corsham6th team will be on hand to support student needs. Clearing has opened for students considering university, so this is an option to consider if you missed the previous deadlines to apply or haven’t been offered any potential places.
If you’re still unsure about your options and would like to discuss this before results day, please contact Ms Jefferies as soon as possible.
Year 11 students
Please ensure you have applied to your next step. If you’re planning to go to college or are considering this as an option but have yet to apply, you need to do so as soon as possible as online applications will be closing imminently and will not be open on results day. If you have not applied and decided on results day that you need to make a college application, you will be directed to go in-person to the college immediately to complete an application. This process can take several hours, whereas an online application takes approximately 15 minutes. Please apply in advance to prevent waiting at the college to complete an application.
A reminder that our sixth form entry requirements are a minimum of five Grade 5s, with some subject entry requirements being higher.
If you’re still unsure about your options and would like to discuss this before results day, please contact Ms Jefferies as soon as possible.
Post-Results Services
If you have any questions relating to a result you receive in the summer, then your relevant subject teacher should be the first point-of-contact. You can also speak to a member of the Exams Office Team who will be able to assist you with advice on the potential next steps here. If, after the relevant discussions have taken place, you require a Post-Results Services Form in order to formally apply for a post-results service, this can be collected from the Exams Office.
Further information about the Post-Results Services available for this summer, including the deadlines for each service, can be found in the following JCQ Guide and Infographic:

Certificate Information Summer 2024
Summer 2024 Certificates
These will be sent to the school, from the exam boards, in late 2024. As such, they will be issued to students in early 2025.
Y11 and Y13 leavers 2022/2023
Certificates have now all been posted by Second Class ‘Signed For’ delivery, to the student’s home address. All certificates posted by ‘Signed For’ delivery will have to be signed for at the point of delivery. If they are unable to deliver the certificates, they will be returned to the school in due course.
Examination Certificates Prior to Summer 2024
Please email Mr Morris or Miss Jackson, who will check if the school still has copies of your exam certificates and advise accordingly. If the school does still have copies of your certificates, then the three options for collection will be the same as those listed above.
Lost Certificates
Each Exam Board has a different system for dealing with lost certificates. You should not assume that you will be able to buy replacements, so please keep them safe! Any applications for replacements must be made by the candidate and cannot be made by the school on the candidate’s behalf.
It is becoming increasingly important that you keep your original certificates safe to show future further education establishments or future employers. We can provide you with a letter (on headed paper) confirming your grades and signed by a member of the Examinations Team. This may satisfy an employer who has asked for confirmation of your results.
