Retake GCSE Core Science 2016

Hello, I have been looking around since results day trying to find out how to resit my GCSE Core Science exam that I have done. I have done it in year 10 and wondering how I could retake it? I don't mind retaking all exams, any ideas on how I could retake?

Edit: Any ideas on how much it would cost and if I would do it in November or June?

You need to speak to your Head of Science and ask them to re-enter you for the summer.

How much do you think it would cost? And any ideas on when it would be?

I'm not sure your school would charge you. It depends on why you didn't get the grade you needed the first time around. Our school doesn't charge for re-sits if the students are trying hard and have the right attitude. The cost is very low, this year it was £31.65 - AQA haven't released their 2016/17 prices yet but it will be similar. You would be re-sitting in the summer as it's only English and Maths re-sits in November.

I Spoke to my head of science and he said I could do it in the summer but there will be a cost. Thanks for replying, I would've expected it to be expensive.
