Examinations

At St Andrew's we offer a wide range of GCSEs, BTECs and other qualifications.

GCSE grades are awarded to using numbers after moving away from the previous letter based system. GCSEs are awarded using a scale of 9-1, and U for unclassified grades.

Business and Technology Education Council (BTEC) are specialist work-related qualifications. BTEC Tech Awards are BTECs designed specifically for 14-16 year olds to study alongside GCSEs in schools.

Overall Achievements obtained can vary from:

Level 1 / Pass, Level 1 / Merit, Level 1 / Distinction

Level 2 / Pass, Level 2 / Merit, Level 2 / Distinction and Level 2 / Distinction*

We have prepared a Student Handbook to give information to students and help answer questions about GCSE Examinations.
