Newark Academy is committed to making every effort to ensure that students are as well-informed as possible for their examinations. We also endeavour to make sure that exams are carried out in a way that reduces as much stress as possible for students so we can help them achieve their very best. One way in which we do that is carry out rigorous sets of mock exams.
