Can my child sit a GCSE in their home language if this isn't taught at King's?
We are always happy to consider facilitating GCSE exams in students' home languages but there will be a fee if your child takes an exam that we don't normally offer. Whether or not we can offer a subject will depend on if we can find an appropriate person to help with the speaking element of the exam. Please contact Mrs Talbot via exams@kingsschoolhove.org.uk if you would like to find out more. 

Do you accept entries from external candidates? 
We will consider requests to accept external candidates, depending on the qualification that a candidate is looking for and the impact their entry would have on the wider exam series. There will be a fee for external candidates, linked to the costs incurred by the school in entering the student. Please contact Mrs Lancaster via exams@kingsschoolhove.org.uk if you would like to find out more.
