And it goes without saying that they are crucial when it comes to deciding what you are going to study for your A-levels. After that, they will play a part in your university or further study applications. However, their importance does not stop there. In fact, GCSE results can also be important for getting a job , especially if you do no t have work experience.
Employers are especially on the lookout for students with good grades in English and Maths, and GCSE results are often the only way to prove this.
This means that long after your GCSEs, employers would favour work experience and higher qualifications. In other words, once you have A-Levels or a degree, you have even more evidence of your academic achievements, and your knowledge will be much more specialised than it was at GCSE level, which is the thing that employers often look out for. However, do not mistake this to mean that your GCSE results will be of no use later on. There are many employers out there who may ask you for your GCSE results decades later, so it is crucial that you keep your certificates safe.
Even if you are never required to provide them, it is better to have them in your possession just in case! Losing your credentials can be an absolute nightmare, but as we have seen throughout the article, your results will still be on record somewhere — it is just a matter of finding them!
If you are unfortunate enough to have lost your GCSE certificates, or never collected them in the first place, do not worry — all is not lost! If you need to recover your results, or proof of them, there are several ways that you can go about this. Firstly, you can try contacting your old school for your GCSE results — or the certificates if you have not collected them.
Unfortunately, there is only a slim chance that they still have either the results or the certificates; that is why this method very rarely proves to be fruitful. Another option is to contact the exam board that you sat your exams with. Since exam boards keep a record of all GCSE results, they can provide you with replacement certificates or a Certified Statement of Results. There will be, however, a cost for this and the process can be very tedious.
It is also something that cannot be left to the last minute, as it can take a significant amount of time for the exam boards to process your request. There are different ways to approach this, so if it something that you think you should read up on, I would recommend this useful article , which can act as a complete guide to finding out your old GCSE results.

For example, Modern Foreign Languages such as Spanish, French and German have speaking exams which will always occur earlier than this period specifies. Your teacher will be given a window in which they have to conduct the exams, and so you will be given information on the date of this nearer the time though with plenty of notice!
Your GCSE exams will then end around 5 weeks after the start date — which usually makes the end date fall in the third week of June. This is because the regular GCSE exam period contains 4 weeks of exams, with the May half term in the middle. So, how will you know when your exams are over? Again, your Secondary School will provide you with an exam timetable which will specify the dates and times of your exams, and will therefore also detail when the exams are over and you can start enjoying your post-GCSE summer!
You could also look at the exam board timetables, which can be found in the links above. As with the start of GCSEs, the end of exams can vary slightly depending on your subject choices. You may also have some questions about when you will start learning your GCSE content for your exams.
The answer this can vary depending on which school you are at, as some start a year earlier than others. There is a possibility that your school will prefer to start teaching GCSEs a year earlier than this starting from Year 9 , in order to make sure that you have time to cover the content and revise it in lesson, though you will be able to cover everything in the 2 years.
This is to give you a bit of a head start on the core subjects which are essential to pass. These include English, Maths and also potentially Science.
