Please note that we do not currently accept external candidates.

Last year's school leavers can collect their certificates from the school reception between 8:30am and 3:00pm, Monday to Friday. 

If you left school 2 or more years ago, please contact the relevant Awarding Body to discuss retrieval of results and certificates. 

Certificates must be collected by the student where possible. If it is required for someone else to collect them on the student’s behalf, please ensure that the appointed person has a signed letter from the student and brings identification. 

Please be aware that we cannot post certificates under any circumstances. 

If you have lost or damaged your certificates, you must contact the relevant Awarding Bodies to arrange a replacement. The school can provide a printed copy of your results on school-headed paper if required. 

For further information about collecting certificates, please contact our Examinations Manager at 0161 241 9930 or via email at exams@chssouth.org.uk. 

Please note that external exams are timetabled by the Awarding Bodies. The exam dates are final and cannot be rescheduled. AM exams start at 8:45am, and PM exams start at 1:00pm. Late arrival could result in refusal of entry to the exam room. 

Please check your child's Statement of Entry, which will contain the Legal Forename, Surname, and Date of Birth we have on record. Ensure this information is correct before 1st April. This will be the final opportunity to correct any details before being sent to the Awarding Bodies. After this date, you will be charged to correct any of the details above.

In the 'Documents' section, you will find the JCQ regulations for Internally and Externally Assessed work for the current academic year. It is very important that all students sitting examinations at CHS South in Summer 2025 familiarise themselves with these regulations. They contain malpractice information and regulations relevant to your GCSE examinations and Controlled Assessments.
