Hi,
We now have a room without windows and to which we have fitted a steel
reinforced door guaranteed to withstand over 40mins attack. I therefore
keep the papers in a locked cupboard which is not reinforced in any way.
This is our best effort, but if you talk to an inspector, they will tell
you horror stories of exams on open shelves in locked but un-reinforced
rooms.
I would demand bars over any window.
Regards,
Ken Southward
Exams Officer

We are currently moving offices and I will have to have a new exams
storage cupboard. I know that the JCQ state that the room should
ideally have no windows and if you have to use a room with a window it
must be barred.
Are any of you using a room with a window and if so is it barred, also
did the inspector have any comments about the room when he visited.
I am currently in a battle with our site services manager who is not
happy with having to bar the windows. I would be interested to know
details of as many centres exam storage facilities as possible.
Thank you.
