- You should bring two black ballpoint pens and any other equipment needed for your examination. For example, if you have a maths exam, please ensure you bring mathematical equipment.

- Calculators must be free of lids, cases and covers. Any cases, lids of covers will need to be placed underneath your desk.

- Water bottles are allowed, and you are encouraged to bring one. These should be clear bottles with a spill-proof cap. You will need to remove any labels from your bottle.
- You must do any rough work in the answer booklet provided. Cross out anything that you do not wish to be marked.
- There is absolutely no talking or communication between students once you enter the examination hall. If you have any questions, you should raise your hand once seated and an invigilator will come to you. You must remain silent until you leave the room. If you are found to be communicating with any one other than invigilators or members of staff in the room, this will need to be reported to the exam board.
What to do if you are ill on the day of an examination

- Within three days of the examination missed please bring in a medical note detailing the reason for non-attendance.
- If you are feeling unwell, but still able to travel, we suggest you come to the examination, and we can assess the situation. In most cases it is better to take the examination if you can. However, if you are displaying Covid-19 related symptoms, you must follow the Barnwell School Covid-19 guidelines.
- If you do not attend an examination without a valid reason, you will be charged for that examination.
