Closed it. Opened it. Thought about filling it in. Decided I couldn’t be bothered. Closed it. Got really cross. Opened it. Started it. Closed it again cos too many rude words flooded my head. Thought about what was the point when it’s already in the regulations for 12-13…err consultation after procedures are published, then decided Functional Skills bookings were far more interesting and life enhancing than JCQ’s piddly little survey!

Please click here to respond to the following two questions: Is the current window of opening question paper packets within 60 minutes of the published starting time for the examination problematic for you? (YES/NO) Would you prefer to see the window of opening question paper packets extended from 60 to 90 minutes? (YES/NO) Consultation is a good thing, but is this really the most burning issue in the exams community at the moment? The cynic in me says that it is consultation for its own sake so that JCQ can say they do consult us, but meanwhile they will ignore the other more significant issues.
