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 will probably run a handful of FS maths in the summer, so will see if any updated instructions appear before then. Last June we had an inspection visit from Pearson - for 4 candidates (of which one was absent!)!

This makes the most sense to me and is what we have been doing to date. However I think that the FS papers are going to have to be returned to Pearson rather than destroyed (according to our account specialist writing on 18th January) Thank you Jen Jennifer Hoare Exams Officer Truro College (Part of Truro and Penwith College) T22 Tresillian Building College Road Truro Cornwall TR1 3XX 01872 267105 [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> From: The FE Exams Network mailing list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Paul King Sent: 26 January 2017 10:55 To: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: BTEC exam paper disposal Hi Jennifer, When we enquired about this they stated that the BTEC papers were subject to the same rules as those covered by the JCQ ICE. FS papers cannot be given out to teachers, and should be destroyed. Do those answers compute with those given by Pearson during any conversation?

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