So the latest exams tend to be things like metalwork etc Late start 2022 with the bank holiday being very late so the first exam will be the 8th probably!

Just bumping this up so if anyone knows when the Timetable for JC 2022 may get published
We booked for Thursday June 23rd so hopefully that will be OK but if it's not, then I'll want to change it as soon as possible.
With most subjects only have one paper now it will be a shorter run of exams for JC but exact dates are unknown, other than the start date… June 8th
Is English still to be 2 Papers ?
No English for JC is one paper now
Any update on when the JC Timetable for 2022 will be published ?
Also, our son is hearing rumours (I know!) that the JC may be cancelled altogether like the past 2 years ? Is that just wishful thinking on his part or a real possibility?
Neither the LC or JC Timetable has been published yet. It's normally out by December. I wouldn't believe any rumours about JC until you hear it from Norma Foley.
Thanks. Hopefully they publish it soon. I have told him to keep studying and take it that there will be a JC until we know otherwise. Hopefully they decide soon though.
It has been first week in January some years, not too surprising that they haven't published yet though, they'd never hear the end of it.
Do you not think that it would give a bit more focus for the Students if they did publish it though ?
Because at the moment the kids think that because it is not yet published, that the Exams will be cancelled like the past 2 years.
I reckon it's up in the air at the moment, I'd say JC is more or less dead in the water, and LC probably same as 2021. If they had published in December, fair enough, but now that they haven't yet, it's pointless them publishing, we all know whatever is released is very unlikely to happen without change.
LC need some nugget, it's an awful stressful year for them, but it was Feb 28 I think last year before they gave in so who knows when it will happen.
Thanks. I originally asked this question in relation to moving our cancelled family holiday from 2020 but now I am more concerned about keeping our son motivated to study !
You could remind him that he’s in school to learn, not to prepare for exams.
Just bribe him. It never fails. Or be negative and take the Pacman or Atari or whatever they're playing these days off him. Better be positive and give a reward rather than punish with a confiscation because all the Helen Lovejoys would be on your case.
Now, at least it is confirmed that the JC will go ahead.
Anyone know when the Timetable will be published?
Norma says ‘shortly’. Make of that what you will, but I’d be hoping in the next week or so.
Fingers crossed that it is roughly the same as previous years from a Dates pov
