The vast majority of assessments are now finished. All will have been completed by lunchtime on Friday 28th May. Can I congratulate our students on the way in which they have applied themselves to this prolonged period of assessment. Thank you too, for the support and encouragement you have given them along the way. Here is a link to the Ofqual document: [‘Student guide to awarding 2021’](https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/986351/21-6780_Student_guide_to_awarding_in_summer_2021_-_accessible.pdf) The first section of this document outlines all of the key information that students and parents need to know about the awarding of grades this summer and where you can gain further information. Friday 28th May will be the last day that we expect our Year 13 students to be in school as a full year group until Friday 2nd July when they will have a leavers liturgy followed by a celebration. Some students (for example some who are studying iMedia) may be asked to come in by their teachers and they must be responsive to this. We have arranged for some treats to be distributed to them during their lunch break on Friday. A level results day is Tuesday 10th August 2021. We look forward to welcoming our fantastic young people then – and hopefully celebrate their successes. With every good wish Stephen Hammond Headteacher ![](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/images/news/LetterFooterWeb.png) [Year 13](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/year-13) [Latest News](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/latest-news) [ NCS Y11 & Y12 Parents Info Session](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/2021-05-24-ncs-y11-y12-parents-info-session) [Year 11 Leavers Careers Letter ](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/2021-05-26-year-11-leavers-careers-letter) ### News & Gallery - [Gallery](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/photo-galleries) - [News](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news/tag/latest-news) - [Newsletters](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news-gallery/newsletters) - [Parent Bulletins](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/news-gallery/parent-bulletins) ![The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form College](https://files.schudio.com/the-english-martyrs-catholic-school-and-sixth-form-3/images/logo/Bishop_Hogarth_and_Hexham_Logo_new_(1).png) ### The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form College Catcote Road Hartlepool TS25 4HA 01429 273790 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/EnglishMartyrsSchool/) - [X](https://twitter.com/ems_hartlepool) - [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@TheEnglishMartyrsSchool) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/ems_hartlepool/) ### Translation ### Office 365 [Sign in to Office 365](https://outlook.office.com/) © Copyright 2025–2026 The English Martyrs Catholic School and Sixth Form College School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://ems.bhcet.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
