I’m not sure to be
honest, either way then they’ve given us the wrong message. We want to
move too, C&G are just generally not performing these days and it makes
things a lot more difficult than they need to be.

Hi Lynne,
Many thanks for your response. We
have had the spreadsheet too and luckily we have most of the certificates, just
over 200 in total. Our Business Advisor wants to visit but we have said
that we want to focus on sorting this out first and then we can meet. I
was hoping the “toolkit” would have a letter in it that would explain the
situation and apologise to the student.
I thought the error only came to light
very recently, surely we would have still received the February result, just
maybe an incorrect one! It is all very worrying. We were already
considering moving our FS to

We haven’t had
anything yet other than a spreadsheet telling us which learners were affected
and to track returned certificates (ours have all gone out already). Our
Business Advisor said we would be getting a visit to apologise but its really
the students who need apologising to. I would at least expect a letter
which we could pass on explaining the error on C&G’s behalf.
We’re missing quite
a few results from February exams and our Business Advisor said this was
because they were withholding results due to the error, but this wasn’t
communicated to us. Plus as these results should have been with us in
March, how long have they known about this error before Friday’s letter?

Hi All,
What support are you receiving from
C&G to rectify this problem? We seem to be having communication from
our Business Advisor but we haven’t yet received the “toolkit” that is supposed
to help us. Our main concern is that we now have a lot of students to get
in for a re-sit in May and then potentially if they need another re-sit there
won’t be time before the end of term.
We also have a large amount of students
who haven’t yet received a FS result, some of these students sat the exam in
February, is anyone else in this position?
Many Thanks
Rachel

We had certificates
for ICT and have issued them to students. I can’t see students giving them back
easily.

Cath
Mandy's advice is
spot on - check Walled-Garden. However, C&G's default position is always
"return the certificates" regardless of whether any have been issued
so I wouldn't be surprised if none have.

Dear All
I am beginning to lose my mind, with regard to City and Guilds FS
error, we wouldn't have had certificates for just individual components would
we?
The lecturers and Senior Managers are hassling me over getting the certificates
back as mentioned in the email from City and Guilds but surely we wouldn't have
had any or have I indeed lost my mind!
