Cutting Costs, Not Experiments: £75 Off A Level Science Practical (CPAC) Entry Fees!

Earlier this month we notified you that we were reducing our Post Results Service fees by between 19% and 50% for academic year 2024/25, primarily because all JCQ Awarding Organisations have now removed the fee’s levied, to all centres, to access exams scripts. At the time we stated that we would be making further announcements on how we could help reduce the assessment burden for those outside of mainstream education.

And here is that announcement! With immediate effect any A Level Science Practical (CPAC) entry made directly with arc exams, and submitted to us no later than 30th November 2024, will receive a £75 discount to our published CPAC fee of £925. That’s right, a five-day A Level Science Practical, delivered in our laboratory in Birmingham in conjunction with our partner, BioGrad Education, for only £850!  And if that wasn’t reason enough, here are another five reasons to consider:

  • Unlike most private candidate assessment centres offering four-day A Level Science ‘Practical’ courses, here at arc exams & BioGrad Education we believe a five-day course (Mon – Fri, 09:30 – 16:00) better meets the needs of private candidates.
  • Each course is typically limited to 12 places ensuring an excellent tutor/student ratio.
  • Four weeks prior to your course commencing, you will be granted access to a series of videos demonstrating the 12 subject practical’s you will conduct during the five-day practical’s course. All videos are produced ‘in-house’ by BioGrad staff and are only available to candidates who have enrolled and paid for their CPAC course(s).
  • A requirement of the practical endorsement Pass is for the candidate to produce a contemporaneous record of the work. So, write up time, with the tutor in attendance, is available on the final day of the course.
  • Most Practical Endorsement courses offered by other providers usually take place outside of term-time. Ours are normally run in term-time allowing you the chance to ‘get away from it all ‘during those typical holiday periods. All available subject course/dates can be viewed here
