Tutors and Exams is now open in Belfast. 2nd Floor, 115-119 Royal Avenue, Belfast, BT1 1FF - 024 7622 1008 - email: belfast@tutorsandexams.uk. This centre is closing from 31 August 2024.

Education Authority Exam Centre Westcourt Centre, 30 Barrack St, Belfast,T12 4AJ. Plans to offer CCEA, Pearson, AQA but not CIE. It is unclear when this may become functional. No real support was offered during the 2020 and 2021 exam cancellations.

We were promised ‘guidance’ on the subject in September 2021 but an email on the 15th of November said "At present the EA is working to resolve a number of issues in relation to being an examination centre and whilst we hope to resolve these soon, we are aware that you have waited since the start of term for an update from us. Therefore in order not to delay your planning and preparation, or cause any undue anxiety, we wanted to make you aware of our ongoing delay in order to allow you to make alternative arrangements should you wish to do so." which does not look promising.

Conway Education Centre closed as an exam centre - keep an eye on their website as they lobby for one to be set up.
