Students must wear

Extra info

Unfortunately we are unable to accommodate spectators within the grade hall during the test. The main reason for this being the grading is a test and any distractions could cause a student to fail their grade. Another reason being the safety aspect for the students. There will be a seated waiting area provided for parents etc if they wish to stay.
