A warm welcome to Erdington Academy

Exam certificates for GCSE students who took exams in May/June 2023 are available for collection from the school reception from Friday 1st December. These are very important documents which are requested by education providers and employers. In line with exam board regulations, the school is only required to keep uncollected certificates for one year, after which they are returned to the exam board or securely destroyed. A set of replacement certificates can cost over £150 following an application to each individual exam board and so it is very important that they are collected within this timeframe of 1 year. Students are required to sign a form on collection to confirm that they have checked and received their certificates. If a student would like to send another person to collect on their behalf, they will need to provide them with a short signed note which outlines that they have given consent for them to do so, or send an email of consent to enquiry@erdington.fmat.co.uk. Please ensure they bring a form of ID when collecting. As certificates are considered the property of the named student, we are unable to give certificates to anyone who does not have a signed note of consent. School Reception is open between 08:00am and 3:00pm Monday to Friday during term-time.
