Assessments and Internal Examinations

In addition to regular homework, assessment and monitoring of pupil progress is an essential part of school life at Craigavon Senior High School. All pupils sit internal examinations. Year 12 will sit their mock examinations end of January / start February while Year 11 will complete their mocks in March. All pupils must complete tracking tests at different stages of the academic year and results are made available to parents in order for them to oversee their child's progress.

The internal examination timetable will be uploaded in due course.
