katkin Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Having spoken to someone who has been rearranging exams at other centres and cities for people who were unable to make it to the Sheffield ones today, apparently it IS possible to relocate exams to other centres (but they still have to be taken at the same time as the original exam) if prior notice is given and arrangements are made with the other centre. This is one of those genuine emergency situations - Rotherham should have pointed this out to Sothall if he /she was unable to get to the college there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should do - and quickly! Given that the floods and road problems were on national (and international ) news all of last week, the exam boards could hardly fail to recognise this was a major incident and that it will undoubtedly have affected students' performances...Seriously, contact your college, tell them about the stress you had to undergo, it ought to be taken into account xK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
