Any information would be useful to us as well, although in my experience this has never been an issue here, but there is always a first time.

Please respond directly to Benjamin Gershaw as I am sending this out on his behalf

 

From: Benjamin Gershaw [mailto:[log in to unmask]]

 

Are you aware of what procedures are followed if a student wants to miss an exam to attend Friday prayers or has a religious holiday? I am talking about public examinations or exams which are fixed on a date whether on a Friday or religious holiday. This hasn’t happened in my time here, I was wondering if it had occurred at any other campus as we have had a ‘heads up’ about it! (Specifically the NEBOSH National General Certificate Exams in December and June). I have checked the JCQ guidelines that cover reasonable adjustments and special consideration an religious holidays are not mentioned.  There is a list of circumstances and they are mainly linked with death and illness.  I am sure that if a student missed an exam due to a religious holiday it would mean re sitting at a future date, although the NEBOSH exams are always held on a Friday.

 

Many thanks
