Hi everyone
What does everyone think of this?
We have always started our exams at 2pm so we will have to
change to 1.30pm if they change it to 1pm
I don’t really understand the logic behind it I am sure we can
raise it at the AoC conference in Feb
Thanks
Sally

Subject: JCQ Survey 2012-13 Afternoon Start Time
Dear Exams
Officer,
In recent years
the JCQ and its awarding body members have been approached by centres asking if
the published starting time for afternoon examinations could be amended.
The present
published starting time of 1.30pm, with a variation of half an hour, can cause
significant problems for rural schools, or those schools with students who are
collected by bus/coach from outlying villages.
Although the
afternoon examination session may commence at 1pm, and the JCQ Common Timetable
Working Group has made strenuous efforts to timetable longer GCE A2
examinations in the morning session, we appreciate the concerns of some
centres.
In light of
these representations we are canvassing centres on whether the published
starting time for the afternoon examination session should be amended from
1.30pm to 1pm with effect from 1 September 2014.
The consultation
will run until 19 July 2013.
The completed
form should be returned by fax to 020 7 374 4343.
May I thank you
for your participation.
Nick Lait
JCQ
