How Do GCSE Resits Work Online?

SHARE THIS PAGE
4th June 25

If you’re studying GCSEs or iGCSEs online with us and you don’t get the grade you needed the first time around, don’t panic, there’s always the option to resit your exam.

All you need to do is inform your tutor that you want to resit the exam and complete the form sent to you via Atom. This will give you the option to select the most convenient exam centre for you, just like the first time you booked your original exam.

Please bear in mind you will need to provide the necessary identification (ID) and a recent photograph of yourself.

Your resit comes at an additional cost and you’ll need to purchase and register for your resit before the cut-off date, otherwise you may have to pay a late registration fee.

Cut-off dates for exam applications are:

  • 31st July for Autumn exams (please note, not all subjects have exams available in Autumn)
  • 31st December for Summer exams

Our resit process is the same as our process for booking your original exam, so it should be straightforward for you to complete. However, if you do need any assistance, you can contact your tutor via your online learner portal.

We wish you the best of luck with your resit! If you have any questions, simply contact our team online below or call them on 01202 006 464Alternatively, download our FREE GCSE Faculty Brochure for more information.

Very smooth process and the pricing was quite competitive from my experience. All the reps are well manned, understanding, and helpful. Ethan was happy to address all my questions (I had a lot) and made me feel at ease.

Jordan was absolutely brilliant

Jordan was absolutely brilliant, he was clear when answering questions, he was friendly throughout the call and made the entire experience less daunting and easier to digest the information being presented. I’m exited to get started with my humanities diploma

The man was very helpful and nice to speak to. When I was on the phone there was a lot of background noise which I found quite overwhelming as I struggle talking on the phone but other than that it was a fairly good experience.
