Lost Results

How can I find lost exam results?

Firstly, get in touch with your old school. It will often retain records of public exam results for several years after pupils have left.

If the school no longer holds a record of your results, you will need to contact the examination board whose exams you sat. This will also need to be done if the school you attended has closed, or it cannot find your results.

Your former school may be able to tell you which examination board it was if you have forgotten. Otherwise, you may have to search all the relevant boards.

Examination boards usually require proof of identity and charge a fee for searching their records. They may not be prepared to issue a replacement certificate, but may instead supply a certified statement of results.

They cannot guarantee to find your examination results, particularly if you took your exams many years ago.

Searching records of examination boards is not quite as daunting as it sounds. Although there have been quite a large number of boards in the past, they are now grouped together under three main awarding bodies.
