That’s exactly our problem, we sat 1200 students down for GCSE last year in over 20 rooms! We haven’t got 20 senior members of staff who can get round the rooms before the start of the exam.  As usual it’s done from a school point of view where they can fit all their students in one room.

We’ll never be able to identify the missing students and ring them in time now.

That’s what I was afraid of….. What do you do to identify missing students when you have multiple exam rooms on the go? By the time the external invigilators are in a position to let the exams office know that there are students who haven’t turned up it’s too late to have a realistic chance of contacting them and getting them in before the 10.00 am and 2.30 pm cut off.

We’ve always relied on senior staff from the subject being examined to manage this and not really sure what we’re going to do now.

Thanks - Fiona

Yes, that is the way we have read it.

Subject: The People Present in the Examination Room
Importance: High

Dear All,

Does anyone have any thoughts on the additional wording in the JCQ notice to centres: The people present in the examination room?

This year they’ve added ‘and who have not had overall responsibility for the candidates preparation for the examination(s)’. Do we assume that rules out Heads of Department from assisting with the identification of students etc.?

Regards - Fiona
