If your parents collect your GCSE results do you need a letter with your approval?

Hi

As I can't collect my GCSE results my parents are going to collect them for me. I've heard that you need a letter saying that you give permission for them to collect them?

Is this true?!

Okay, yeah I've just looked through this booklet we got and it does actually say that's the case.

I would think so yes

To be on the safe side, I would.

It won't take long to do the letter of permission, and it's much better then having a problematic results day.

we needed a letter, as your results need to be singed for usually

so my mum picked up my results in year 10 for me, i was around in year 11 for my results which was good, wouldnt have liked my mum to get them first

Just found out I have to work on that day at 9am...I'll be sending my mum in with a letter but we're suppose to enroll that day too :s-smilie:

Any way she can enroll for me too or is that pushing it?

Yes a signed letter

If I wrote a letter to allow a family friend to collect my daughters results, do you think that would be ok?

I think your daughter needs to give the permission, not you.

Probably - make sure the person has ID. We wouldn't give the envelope to anyone we didn't recognise. Maybe ask for envelope to be sealed?

Righto, it would be another parent in the same year as mine so I'm sure they will know her but I will take your advice and do all of the above. Many thanks
