Thanks Fiona. That's brilliant From: The FE Exams Network mailing list <[log in to unmask]> On Behalf Of Davidson, Fiona Sent: 14 March 2018 10:44 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Unite Importance: High Hi Vicky, I record a code in the 'Particular Requirements' field of each exam subject entry for access arrangement students eg. E25 = Extra Time, RB = Rest Breaks, WP = Word Processor, SEP = Separate Room etc. . When I go into exam seating this code appears alongside each student's exam paper so that when I seat each session I extract all the access arrangement students before clicking the 'allocate all' button for the remaining masses. I have a designated room for extra timers and rest breaks, another for students on a word processor and then I beg, borrow and steal classrooms for students requiring separate invigilation. I hold my breath each year in case I run out of space in any of these rooms but so far it always seems to work out (a bit like the loaves and fishes really - maybe miracles do still happen!).I believe that the A2C version of Unit-e is much more sophisticated but I have yet to even look at it! We don't include any timings on student timetables, merely start times of AM and PM and a general instruction that AM means be at your exam room at 9.00 am and PM means be at the room at 1.15 pm. Our invigilators calculate any extra time a student may be entitled to and manage it within the exam room. Needless to say, those 'special' room sessions are only allocated to our most experienced, reliable and competent invigilators. Hope this is some use and feel free to give me a ring if you think it would help.

Access arrangements. Do you log them on Unite exams manager and do they show on the student's timetable. As usual, everything is done manually here and wondered if you had a process for putting it on Unite. Many thanks in anticipation.

So you can resolve the clashes and then return to the actual seating at a later date.

The only issue we have with that is that we have so many changes that we don't run out seating until the day before and that's why I wanted to use the clash tool. Cheers Vicky From: The FE Exams Network mailing list <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> On Behalf Of Davidson, Fiona Sent: 08 March 2018 14:07 To: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Unite Importance: High Hi Vicky, I use Unit-e seating to resolve all clashes and it shows the name of the exam as well as the duration. You know which one has been rescheduled because the changed time appears on the screen. It's very difficult to picture your difficulties from an e-mail so I'm more than happy for you to give me a ring if you think it would help.

We are using the clash report for the first time and I am a little confused. I am aware that it brings the student through twice but how do you know which paper you are displacing until after the event. I have displaced two students but it does not tell you which paper it is only the time and if we have the same duration of time for each exam how do you know which one it is. When I used QL, it was much easier. In addition, how can these changes be reflected on the timetable as there is no comments box in the clash process. Sorry for the long-winded email. Any help greatly accepted.
