Taking exams is a stressful time for everyone, but if you follow the guidance provided by the Exams Office, it will help you to navigate your way through to successful completion.
It is very important that students arrive on time for all their exams and is particularly helpful if you would try to be at the examination venue 10 minutes before the start time. It is also important to the smooth running of the examinations that students have the correct equipment with them, as well as have a clear understanding of those items which are not permitted in the examinations room. This information is detailed in our guides below.

We also produce a booklet entitled A Comprehensive Guide to Examinations at Crickhowell High School 2018-19, which tells you everything you need to know about how to prepare for and to sit exams, with extensive information on the whole exams process. The booklet is updated each year and is available for download below.
