EDUCATION leaders will unveil a shake-up to Warrington's school exam system at a two-day free event at The Halliwell Jones Stadium next week.
The Wayahead conferences on Monday and Tuesday will reveal how new Specialised Diplomas will replace the current GCSE system of qualifications.
Organisers say it is vital that parents know about the changes to help their children plan for the future.
They hope as many parents and students as possible will drop in between 4pm and 9pm each day, where they will also unveil a new Internet on-line prospectus called Wayahead, designed to guide learners into jobs, training or further education.
Guests will also be able to meet Hollyoaks actress Carley Stenson and watch a short film that Carley has made to explain Way Ahead in more detail.
Some of the changes will see students being able to move between different schools and colleges across Warrington to study subjects a couple of days a week.
The project is supported by Warrington Learning Partnership, Warrington Borough Council, Connexions and the Learning and Skills Council.
