Signature?
Nobody puts a signature on a GCSE paper.
There isn't even a box for a signature.

I don't think it matters if you didn't put your signature. As long as you've got your candidate number on. I don't actually know so don't trust me on this.

doesn't matter

fwiw whenever you're asked for your signature you can just write your name, or something like <First initial>. <Middle name initial>. <Surname> (like J. H. Smith)

I just do a random squiggle whenever asked. It's a formality and most of the time they have nothing to check your signature against.

It doesn't really matter - the only things on a paper that are crucial are really the candidate number and centre number (and maybe your name so that they can check if needs be). Whilst they do want you to write your signature, your paper will still get marked and you will receive a grade. But, in the future, to be certain to avoid any problems, just put your initials in the box (it doesn't have to be a full fancy signature).
