As for the functional skills, we have recently been made told there is a contradiction in the ICE document about what to do with spare copies, we are asking centres to return these along with completed scripts.

Functional Skills Paper based exams – Either return them with the scripts or hold them in secure storage until 2 additional series have passed and we can then use them for T&L. So for example the papers from November would be held until the end of the February test window and then could be given to teaching staff. So many variations from the same board is ridiculous!

We cannot get the same answer twice from Pearson and there is nothing written down that we can find.
