Answers

Studying in London, answered.

Where do I sit my GCSE exams in London?

You sit written GCSE exams at one of three Lift-partnered Tutors and Exams centres in London: Mitcham (Boundary Business Court, Church Road, CR4 3TD), Romford (Unit 5 Redwing Court, Ashton Road, Harold Hill, RM3 8QQ) or High Wycombe (46-48 Oxford Street, HP11 2XG). You pick your centre when you book your exam entry.

Which A-Level subjects have practicals in London?

Sciences (Biology, Chemistry and Physics) require the CPAC practical endorsement. Live Spring 2027 venues in the London catchment are Sutton High School and Norwood School. Mitcham is not on the live CPAC venue list. Check current venue dates before booking.

How much do exam fees cost in London?

Written exam fees are set by the exam board and are the same nationally, typically £45 to £75 per GCSE unit and £65 to £110 per A-Level unit. You pay the exam centre directly for the sitting. CPAC practicals for sciences carry an additional fee of around £120 per subject.

Can I take my exams if I do not live near Mitcham, Romford or High Wycombe?

Yes. Lift College can arrange exams through partnered Tutors and Exams centres elsewhere in the UK if none of the London options suit you. Ask us about alternatives when you enrol.

When do I need to enrol to sit exams in summer 2027?

The Tutors and Exams entry deadline for Summer 2027 is 7 February 2027. Late fees start on 8 February 2027 and entries close on 4 April 2027. No separate MFL-specific Summer 2027 date is listed on the live deadline page.

In their words

Studied A-Level Biology while working full time. Sat my written papers at Battersea Arts Centre, a smooth process, and staff really knew what they were doing on the day.

Chose Lift because I could sit my GCSE Maths in Romford, ten minutes from home. Everything from enrolment to exam day was clear.
