Assessment for GCSE, AS and A level exams 2022
Dear parent
It is a pleasure to see all our learners back in school and the vast majority working extremely hard in their lessons. Learners sitting external exams in the summer have faced unprecedented challenges and disruption, however, we are working hard with our learners to mitigate these challenges and ensure they are well prepared for their exams.
We have recently received communication from Qualifications Wales (Download qw-cc21-04e-lettertolearners-arrangementsfor2022 ) outlining their approach to summer exams; a copy of their letter has been emailed to you and is available on our website. The main points are as follows:
1. Welsh Government, Qualifications Wales and WJEC expect exams to go ahead as planned in the summer. To take into account the lost curriculum time due to the pandemic, the WJEC have made significant changes to each qualification. The qualification changes have been made following a consultation with schools and will enable learners to move on to their next stage of learning or employment. Heads of Department have amended their learning plans to ensure they are teaching the correct content and skills. Qualifications Wales and the WJEC have reassured schools that the grading process will be fair and that they will take into account the disruption experienced by learners.
2. If Covid cases continue to rise, and exam series are cancelled, there is a contingency plan in place. Schools will be asked to award grades based on the work completed by learners during their qualification. We await further guidance from Qualifications Wales but the evidence used might include:
• Summative Assessments, APPs and mock exams completed during the qualification.
• Completed Non-Examined Assessments / coursework.
• Classwork and homework completed during the qualification.
It is therefore essential that all our learners try their very best as teachers can only award grades that can be validated by work completed by our pupils and students. Now is the time for our learners to work harder than ever before and ensure their teachers are provided with enough evidence to award top grades if exams are cancelled.
We will continue to provide regular updates via our website and social media. If you have any specific questions please contact your son's/ daughter's Head of Year.
Yours faithfully,
Mr G Turner
Deputy Head
Miss S Reed
Head of 6th Form
Changes in WG advice for household contacts of Covid-19
Dear parents and carers,
We are writing in relation to the recent statement that came out from the Welsh Government who are changing their guidance about household contacts. From Monday 11th October, the Welsh Government are advising that if anyone in your household tests positive for Covid-19, as well as undertaking PCR testing on day 2 and day 8, that young people should also use the Lateral Flow Devices to test every day for 7 days. This should start on the day a household contact is confirmed as positive from either a lateral flow device or a PCR test result.
Lateral flow device testing kits continue to be available through school for the routine twice weekly testing. Should anyone require further test kits for the purposes of testing due to being a household contact, please contact your year team.
Further information about this can be found on the following link:
Yours sincerely
Neil Foley - B.Sc. MA.

Open Evening (Virtual)
A Welcome from the Headteacher
Prestatyn High School is a transformational school. The outstanding results we achieve for pupils and students, coupled with the first-rate pastoral care we provide, make us an excellent place to grow, develop and gain an education that will prepare young people for the rest of their lives. The school is also transforming the building too! We are working hard to make sure that our facilities are renewed so that all learners can work and develop in a modern, effective environment. These improvements include the new state-of-the-art science labs and the refurbishment of all of our sports facilities. We are exceptionally proud of the work that we do with our pupils and students, and I look forward to welcoming our next cohort of Year 7s so that they can enjoy their time in education and thrive in this academic environment. I am delighted to welcome you to our great school, and I am honoured to be the Headteacher of such a vibrant and successful school.
