It is important to note that you would be charged for each paper for which you request a Clerical Check or a Review of Marking.
If you request Access to Scripts, you will receive a copy of your exam paper, if you wish it to be looked at by your teacher(s), you will need to approach them to do this. It will not be forwarded to your teacher(s) automatically and does not form part of the process. Please note, staff may not be able to accommodate this request ahead of the deadline for a Clerical Check / Review of Marking if insufficient notice is given.
Parent/carer email addresses are requested in relation to payment queries. Copies of exam scripts and/or results of Clerical Checks / Reviews of Marking will only be shared with candidates for data protection purposes.
A hard copy of the completed form, or an electronic copy of the completed form should be submitted to the Exams Officer in school, or via email (eharris@sandbachhigh.co.uk) no later than the deadlines stated above. For us to accept an electronic copy of the form, it must be signed by the student or sent from the student’s school email address.
As we are a cashless school, payment should be made either via Bank Transfer or via card machine. When paying via Bank Transfer please use the details provided in the letter below and ensure you check you have chosen the correct amount appropriate to the exam board and post-result service you require.
A card machine will be available at the school on results day, and will then be available in school.
Once both the form and payment have been received, the Exams Officer will make the request to the exam board. Should you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact me on eharris@sandbachhigh.co.uk.
