I believe City & Guilds inspectors still expect it – between 15 and 5 minutes.
So long as all finish at the same time, there should be no problem with notifying candidates. Some may complain that they
hadn’t received any notification, even though they are responsible for their own time management. I guess it’s a centre-preferred action these days. We notify
only if they all finish at the same time.

It has been removed from JCQ guidance, and we have had email from one of the boards saying it is now “forbidden” because students have complained that it interrupts them.

Hi all
Just want to get a feel for best practice on calling time towards the end of exams – do you announce when candidates have 15, 10 or 5 minutes left or more than one of these?
Thanks
