Hi Kate We allow 1 free re-sit for 16-18 olds for everything except the Hairdressing and Plumbing as we do not get charged from the awarding body for these. For any subsequent resits we now bill the department. :) Regards Nancy From: The FE Exams Network mailing list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Kate Oliver Sent: 28 March 2012 14:48 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re-sit Policy [Spam score: 8] Does anyone else charge their students for re-sitting exams? We allow students 1 free re-sit per module and then charge them for every subsequent re-sit (whether it be GCE/GCSE/Functional Skills etc etc). For Hairdressing and Plumbing we allow them an extra re-sit per unit as they have so many online tests to sit. Our Dept Heads think the Exams Team are being "unfair" to do this even though it's college policy. They claim if the students have to pay for what is in effect a 3rd go at an exam they won't be motivated to pass it. If they haven't been motivated to pass it the first 2 times then surely there's no hope!! What do other people do?
