I am trying to collect information relating to the following for work I am undertaking on 'exam congestion' and would be grateful for feedback from colleagues. If you would like a copy of collated responses please let me know and I'll send you a copy.
1) How may students are centrally scheduled exams arranged for each year?
2) How many exam periods to you hold each year and what are the lengths?
3) During the exam period, how many exam sessions per day do you hold?
4) How many exams are you scheduling in each exam period?
5) Do you run exams on the weekend?
6) If you use weekends, what arrangements do you make for students who are unable to attend for reasons relating to religious observation, employment etc.
7) Do you copy all exam papers 'in-house' or use an external company/organisation?
8) If you are having papers copied externally have you encountered any problems?
Thanks!
