If anybody's doing CG Level 2 ICT there's an error in one of the data
files.  CG are contacting centres and e-mailing the correct files to
them.

Hi Lorraine, thanks for that, where can I find the handbook? Also, do
you receive question papers as we still haven't received any and the
exams are next week.

 

Many Thanks

We have had fun preparing for these.  The handbook is excellent though
and it has proved invaluable.

 

Our Ethernet cables are housed within desk bases which cannot be easily
reached and I cannot rely on someone in IT to be around to disable
internet 15mins into exam so we are using a second person who will
collect all the named printouts to give to students to attach to their
exam papers plus this ratio for 20 allows us to leave the internet
connected but monitored by both invigilators. 

 

Whilst printing carries no marks, the board do require that it is
carried out either in the room or nearby but remaining under controlled
conditions so our second person will do this.  

 

I will download all data files in a public file which we will give them
passwords to on the day that way they won't be accessible before or
after.

 

Our IT dept have configured Outlook on a global account for students to
access email as part of their exam and we are looking forward to the
experience!

Hi, could somebody give me some guidance on Functional Skills ICT. We
are running our first session of these next week and I'm concerned on a
few issues 

-          Do City and Guilds send question papers or is the work all in
the data files

-          How have you monitored the 'No Internet Access'

-          Are part A and part B timed or does the individual candidate
move on to B when they've finished part A

 

In regards to sending the candidates the data files via email, I was
thinking of setting up different users 'Exam 1', Exam 2' etc  and
emailing the files to them rather than emailing to the candidates own
outlook where they have to be logged on as themselves with the potential
of accessing other work. Have any other centres tried this and how did
they find it worked.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated - City and Guilds really do not
make life easy!!!

 

Many Thanks
