Examination protocol

It is worth reminding people that exams are coming and that there are certain rules and regulations that must be followed:

Be on time - an exam can start without you if you are late, and it is up to the discretion of the moderators as to whether you can enter. If they do allow you to enter you will be at a disadvantage as you will have less time.

do not communicate with anyone once inside the exam room - If you speak to anyone about anything. If the moderator suspects you have been speaking to someone, and therefore suspects you of cheating, then you will be asked to leave, your paper will be cancelled, and any papers you are sitting with the exam board will also be cancelled.

Do not use mobile phones, ipod, MP3 players or any forms of electronic device - Anything that can store or transmit information is banned within an examination room. The reason for this should be obvious. Make sure phones are off, or better still left at home. If one rings in an exam this can also lead you to have your paper cancelled.

Stay until the end. If you are in a 2 hour paper, it is because the exam board feel you need 2 hours to complete. If you have finished after half an hour, you will not be allowed to leave, so you may as well prepare for the exam correctly!

Please be sensible, and get the qualifications you deserve!
