Hi Sally

 

All seat numbers and rooms are shown on the individual timetable so the student knows well in advance what seat/room they are in.  As a back up I have alpha lists outside the room showing the seat number.  The individual timetables are done in the Unite-e package.

 

Hope this helps.

Hi Sally,

 

A couple of years ago I made the mistake of listing by candidate number and chaos ensued!

 

We now have a new Sports Hall which takes up to 250 students.

I have had up to 5 different exams running in this room, but I don't recommend it unless they all finish at the same time. Getting students out quietly is impossible.

All Seat Plans are sorted in  NAME ORDER and are displayed on a notice-board outside the Sports Hall. Whenever I have a large attendance register, for instance Keyskills or Citizenship, I always put a number of copies up around the college. In the food court on a portable notice board is the favorite.

This seems to have worked well up until now!

Seat Plans are created in Excel from an export. A4 sheets are used. This means a lot of drawing pins but I manage!

Hope this helps.

Hi everyone
Can you let me know if you have any good ideas of getting candidates into the exam hall where there are a number of exams taking place in one Hall.  We currently display a copy of the seating plan outside the Hall which shows students where they are sitting (in candidate number order).  We can only copy this to A3 size and it can be quite difficult to read for large numbers of students.

Any help would be appreciated!  This is causing delays to the students getting into the Hall to start the exam

 

Thanks
