Hi

 

Can anyone tell me the arrangements for GCSE results at Royal/Elmhurst /Tring?

 

Specifically can you choose by phone/email as an option? 

 

Thanks!

We had an email from WL 3 years ago. 

Drove to Hammond to collect last year. Tring this year and haven’t asked yet!

Yeh I was wondering how they did it at voc schools! As generally people live away from the school, then the email came today! We don’t have anyone that can call in! So we’re really hoping we could request an email! We’re out of the country so a phone call wouldn’t do either!!

My daughter rang last year (around 10.00am) and they gave  them to her over the phone (This was The Hammond). Think lots of people did this - it was agreed beforehand.

We’ve just been told that results will not be released over the phone or by email this year.

Not quite Vocational but at a regular academic school, if a pupil can’t attend personally to receive their GCSE results ie holidays, the pupil provides the school a stamped addressed envelope for the results to be posted to them instead and at an address of choice. At least the results are in writing rather than over the phone which could cause some confusion 

Worth considering.

I second that, results have never been available over the phone at the various state and private schools of which I have knowledge; in fact there has usually been an expectation that arrangements are made for each pupil to attend in person unless absolutely impossible. Obviously at a vocational school where many pupils board and may live some distance away that may have been different.

That’s not very helpful to those living a distance away. I would have thought that it was relatively easy to have agreed a system of ensuring they are speaking to the right person, so that calls can be made on the day or even emailed to a pre agreed address. Let’s hope it gets sorted for those poor students and their families where it will have significant impact if they either have to travel or wait additional days for the post.

Indeed. I’m lucky in that I live close enough though I will have to book a day off work as husband is not allowed to drive at the moment but it will be difficult for many.
