Exam Entry Made Simple
You don’t have to be entered through a school to sit exams. Through our Ambassador Programme, students can register as external candidates, booking a place at an approved examination centre without being enrolled there.
Learning Gym can make this process straightforward. We can liaise with exam centres so students are entered correctly for ISEB assessments (including Common Pre-Tests and Common Entrance), GCSEs with AQA, and iGCSEs with Edexcel. We can also advise on exam dates, subject choices, and what each exam involves.
With the administration taken care of, students and families can concentrate on preparation and performance.

Other GCSEs, such as Applied Science papers or a language you speak at home might mean extra qualifications with no extra effort.
