Examinations
At St Albans Girls' School, your child will take exams and assessments as necessary so that we can assess their progress internally, and they can achieve public examination results.
Internal assessments will be taken on a regular basis in class. All year groups (except Years 11 and 13) will take internal End of Year Examinations in order to prepare them for the rigours of public exams in the future. Mock GCSE and A level Exams take place in the November/December before their final public exams in May/June. All these exams are taken under formal exam conditions, in classrooms at Key Stage 3 and in the Sports Hall at Key Stages 4 and 5.
Regular retrieval practice and revision are at the heart of teaching and learning at STAGS. The more students retrieve, the more they remember. More details on revision techniques can be found here.
If you have any queries about exams please contact our Exams Officer.

Students are invited to come into school between 8.00am - 10am to collect their results in person.
If you are unable to collect your results in person, a relative can do this for you. However, they must have a signed letter from you giving permission, and photo identification e.g. Driving licence/ passport. Alternatively, you can email the Exams Officer prior to results day to request that your results are emailed to you. Please note that there will be a slight delay with this option, and results will be sent between 8.30am and 11am.
Staff will be on site between 8.00am-10am to help with any queries, and STAGS Sixth Form enrolment will also take place at this time. Enrolment for external candidates will be between 11am-2pm.
Forms will be available on the day if any student wishes to make an application for a script to be reviewed.
We look forward to celebrating with students in August 2023.
