E. Protocols

  • For Papers A0, A1 and A2, the questions should be set by one examiner and checked by the lecturer.  The final drafts of papers must be reviewed and approved by the whole Examining Board.

  • After the Michaelmas Term lecture courses have finished for A0, A1 and A2 course lecturers are invited to comment on the papers.

  • For Papers A3-A11 and ASO, questions should be drafted by the appropriate lecturer and checked by the examiners (or assessors if the examiners do not possess appropriate expertise).  The final drafts of papers must be reviewed and approved by the Examining Board.  The expectation is that scripts will be marked by the appropriate lecturer.

  • Letters to course lecturers from previous years are commended as good practice.

  • Examiners are reminded of the need for security when dealing with examination papers. All papers must be submitted via the secure SharePoint online site only.
