Certificates will be handed to students between 4-5pm on Thursday 4th December 2025 for Year 11 Leavers. Any students who sit examinations early, will receive their certificates at their own Year 11 evening, in the year that they leave secondary education.
Please contact school as soon as possible to inform whether you will be attending or not.
If you cannot attend the event to collect your certificates
For students who cannot collect their own certificates, they can designate someone else to collect them using the application form below, or request postal delivery for a fee. The designated person MUST bring photographic proof of identification for themselves along with them.
What happens if I do not collect my certificates?
Please be aware that certificates only need to be retained by the school for 12-months before they are securely destroyed. Therefore it is important that you collect your certificates as soon as possible, by arrangement with the exams office, to ensure that you do not have to pay for expensive replacements. Ex-students who believe they may have certificates held by the school should email exams@sc.coastandvale.academy requesting advice on whether their certificates are available, giving the following information:
- Full Legal Name at the time the exams were taken
- Date of Birth
- Year of leaving Scalby
Replacement certificates
Where certificates are no longer held by the school, it is possible to obtain replacements. Details of how to obtain replacements are available from http://ofqual.gov.uk/help-and-advice/getting-a-replacement-certificate/. There is a charge per certificate for obtaining replacements.
