The main provisions of the Act give protection to disabled people in the areas of employment and education. 8

Recruitment of invigilators is the responsibility of the Registrations and Assessments Manager. Securing the necessary Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) clearance for new invigilators is the responsibility of the person appointing the invigilator. Invigilators are timetabled and briefed by the Registrations and Assessments Manager. Invigilators' rates of pay are set by personnel. Invigilation Arrangements The Registrations and Assessments Manager must ensure that suitably qualified and experienced staff carry out invigilation. Any relative of a candidate in the examination room is specifically not eligible to serve as the sole invigilator. The invigilator is the person in the examination room responsible for the conduct of a particular examination session in the presence of the candidates. Invigilators must give their whole attention to the proper conduct of the examination. Invigilators are not to perform any additional tasks in the examination room. At least one invigilator must be present for every 30 candidates or part thereof for written exams. At least 1 invigilator must be present for every 20 candidates for online tests and practical examinations. Invigilators may be changed provided that the number present does not fall below the prescribed number. A teacher who has prepared or taught the candidates for the subject of the examination during the academic year of the examination must not be the sole invigilator at anytime during a written examination in that subject. For practical tests, there must normally be one invigilator to every 20 candidates or part thereof. In these examinations it is essential that a teacher of the subject should be present in the examination room at the start of the test and as necessary thereafter to deal with technical difficulties that may arise. Supervision of assignments to be taken under controlled conditions e.g. art may be undertaken solely by the teachers of the subject. 10
11 If questions or passages are to be read to the candidates, it is essential that an invigilator is present in addition to the reader. If a scribe is required, it is essential that an invigilator is present in addition to the scribe. A scribe may also be a reader Candidates should be arranged in the examination room so that they can be seen by an invigilator at all times. These instructions must be made available to each invigilator in the examination room and invigilators must be familiar with the Notice to Candidates, the warning to candidates and any specific regulations relating to the subject being examined. Centres must keep signed records of the seating and invigilation arrangements for each examination session. The seating and invigilation records may be required by the awarding body at any time up to the publication of results. These should be signed by the invigilator. Malpractice The Registrations and Assessments manager is responsible for investigating suspected malpractice. Exam days The exams officer will book all exam rooms after liaison with other users and make the question papers, other exam stationery and materials available for the invigilator. The Estates Team is responsible for setting up the allocated rooms. The invigilator will start all exams in accordance with JCQ guidelines. Subject staff may be present at the start of the exam to assist with identification of candidates but must not advise on which questions or sections are to be attempted. In practical exams subject teachers may be on hand in case of any technical difficulties. Exam papers must not be read by subject teachers or removed from the exam room before the end of a session. Copies of the exam papers are allowed to be given to subject teachers 24 hours after the published finishing time. A relevant subject teacher may be available to read out any subject-specific instructions and start the exam, if required. Centres must keep signed records of seating and invigilation arrangements for each examination session. These may be required by the awarding body at any time up to the publication of results and should be signed by the invigilator. 11
12 Candidates JCQ rules on candidates use of mobile phones and electronic devices apply at all times. Normal centre rules on dress and behaviour apply. Candidates' personal belongings remain their own responsibility and the centre accepts no liability for their loss or damage. Disruptive candidates are dealt with in accordance with JCQ guidelines. For exams longer than one hour, candidates will not be allowed to leave the exam room until at least one hour after the published starting time. They will not be allowed to return until the end of that session, when all candidates have completed. Candidates may only leave the exam room for a genuine purpose and are required to return immediately to the exam room. They must be accompanied by a member of staff at all times. For clash candidates, the supervision of escorts, identifying a secure venue and arranging overnight supervision is the responsibility of the Registrations and Assessments Manager. Should a candidate be ill before an exam, suffer bereavement or other trauma, be taken ill during the exam itself or otherwise disadvantaged or disturbed during an exam, then it is the candidate's responsibility to alert the centre, the exams officer, or the exam invigilator, to that effect. The candidate must support any special consideration claim with appropriate evidence within three days of the exam, for example, by providing a letter from the candidate's doctor. The exams officer will then forward a completed special consideration form to the relevant awarding body within seven days of the exam. Internal assessment It is the duty of campus staff to ensure that all internal assessment is ready for dispatch at the correct time. The exams officer will assist by keeping a record of each dispatch, including the recipient details and the date and time sent. Marks and appeals Marks for all internally assessed work and estimated grades are provided to the exams office by the subject teachers and head of school Appeals against internal assessments must be made known to the exams officer. 12
13 Appeals against internal assessments The process for managing appeals against internal assessments is detailed in a separate appeals policy, available from the exams office. Results, enquiries about results (EARs) and access to scripts (ATS) All individual candidate statements of results along with the centre candidate statement of results letter will be available to collect from the exams office on results day, any not collected are posted to candidates the same day. Arrangements for the centre to be open on results days are made by the exams officer. The provision of staff on results days is the responsibility of Registration and Assessment Manager and the MIS/Examinations Director. Results cannot be collected on behalf of a candidate unless they provide written evidence from the candidate with details of that candidate s personal details. EARs (Enquiries about results) EARs may be requested by centre staff or candidates if there are reasonable grounds for believing there has been an error in marking. The candidate's consent is required before any EAR is requested. If a result is queried, the exams officer, teaching staff and Registrations and Assessments manager will investigate the feasibility of asking for a re-mark at the centre's expense. When the centre does not support a candidate or parent s request for an EAR, a candidate may apply to have an enquiry carried out. If a candidate requires this against the advice of subject staff, all EAR s will be charged. Certificates Certificates are either presented in person or collected and signed for. Certificates cannot be collected on behalf of a candidate by third parties, unless they have been authorised to do so. The centre retains certificates for five years. Processing of Results All examination results will be entered onto the MIS system upon receipt from the Examination Board. Once entered, a printout will be produced and the entries will be checked by a third party. Examination results will be collated for the following purposes: 13
14 Presentation to DfES for attainment funding purposes and quality assurance; Presentation to the Corporation Board, SMT and Academic Board; and Use by Internal College Management. Receipt of Examination Results Results for A Level, GCSE, WBQ, Counselling, results will normally be made available to learners on the Thursday of the second and third weeks of August respectively. Results on these days will be available to learners from 0830 hours. All other results will be made available promptly to learners once received. 14
