- Science is written as two separate papers, Physical Science on 16 November and Biological Science on 17 November, so plan revision for both.
- There are no papers from 13 to 15 November. Students can use this break to revise for the science papers.
- Answer scripts are to be valued by 25 November 2026, and progress cards will be given by 30 November 2026.
