17. The awarding bodies have designated Wednesday 26 June 2024 as the
‘contingency day’ for examinations. The afternoons of Thursday 06 June
and Thursday 13 June have been designated as ‘contingency afternoons’
for examinations. This is consistent with the qualification regulators’
document Exam system contingency plan: England, Wales and Northern
Ireland – gov.uk/government/publications/exam-system-contingency-plan-
england-wales-and-northern-ireland

The designation of ‘contingency days’ within the common examination

timetable is in the event of national or significant local disruption to
examinations in the United Kingdom. It is part of the awarding bodies’
standard contingency planning for examinations.

Centres must therefore remind candidates that they must remain

available until Wednesday 26 June 2024 should an awarding body need to
invoke its contingency plan.
