(although please note that if OFQUAL/JCQ/DfE again instigate a ‘draw forward’ of A/GCSE exams and results’ release dates in England for Summer 2024 by one week from their normal ‘historic positioning’, then Autumn Term 2024 may alternatively start on Tuesday 20 August 2024. The College will continue to lobby OFQUAL/DFE/JCQ against this change. A final decision re Summer 2024 exam dates and results release dates, by OFQUAL/JCQ/DfE, would be expected by Spring 2023 at the latest).
