As we begin the external exam season, all students should be reminded of the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ) 'Instructions for Candidates'. This covers the expectations and rules that will be followed during these exams. These are set by JCQ and all schools must follow them. In situations where students fail to follow any of these guidelines, the school are required to report it to the exam board which may lead to external sacntions such as a loss of marks. Students will be asked to watch the video below by their form tutors but it may be useful for parents to familiarise themselves with this too in order to reinforce the importance of following these expectations.
