Contingency Day
The awarding bodies have designated one day as a ‘contingency day’ for examinations.
The designation of ‘contingency sessions’ within the common examination timetable is in the event of national or significant local disruption to examinations in the United Kingdom. It is part of the awarding bodies’ standard contingency planning for examinations.
For external exams in Summer 2025, candidates are reminded that they must remain available until Wednesday 25 June 2025, should an awarding body need to invoke its contingency plan.
