4.15 Candidates’ desktops should be ‘locked down’ to ensure that they can not access email,
internet or intranet.
4.16 Candidates may not access any saved work they may have created prior to the
examination.
During the examination
4.17 There must be one invigilator to every 15 candidates (see JCQ Instructions for the
Conduct of Examinations, paragraph 6.1)
4.18 At least one invigilator should be conversant with the software and system to be used by
candidates in order to deal with technical difficulties that may arise. This may be the ICT
teacher. However, they should not be the sole invigilator (see JCQ Instructions for
Conducting Examinations, paragraph 6.1 – bullet points 4 and 5). Alternatively, the ICT
teacher may be on call should they be needed in the room.
4.19 Candidates may not bring portable storage media (for example memory sticks, CDs) in to
the examination.
4.20 Candidates must not have access to pre-prepared templates or other files during the
examination. However, they may use software-specific wizards.
4.21 Candidates may use dictionaries (English or bilingual only) during the examination.
4.22 Candidates are not allowed to refer to textbooks or centre-prepared manuals during the
examination, but may use software-specific help facilities or manufacturer’s computer
manuals (providing these do not require internet access). Software manuals are defined as
the books provided by the software manufacturer talking through the functionality of the
software only.
4.23 Display material (for example maps, diagrams, wall charts) must be removed inaccordance with paragraph 5.4 of the Instructions for Conducting Examinations issued
by the JCQ.
4.24 Candidates must not take copies of any materials into the examination except those
stipulated in 3.14 above.
4.25 A seating plan for each session must be kept.
4.26 Candidates may move from their workstation to collect their printouts from the printer.

Instructions for labelling
4.28 Candidates MUST enter their details on all tasks before printing as specified in the
examination paper. Handwritten details are not acceptable.
Please note: It is not acceptable to pre-print each page with candidate details and then
overprint the appropriate task.
Printing
4.29 Printers should be in the same room as the candidates. If this is not the case another
responsible person must be assigned to deliver printouts to candidates. Candidates may
not collect printouts from another room, nor must the invigilator become involved in the
collection of printouts from another room.

4.30 It is the responsibility of the centre to ensure correct ownership of each printout.
4.31 There is no requirement to print in colour. No extra credit is given to work printed in
colour. However, adequate differentiation is needed on monochrome printouts (for
example sectors of a pie chart are distinguishable).
4.32 If printouts are on continuous stationery, the pages must be separated and sprocket holesremoved.
4.33 In the event of a printer breakdown, the centre may use its discretion on extending the
time allowed.
4.34 It is the invigilator’s responsibility to ensure that these regulations are adhered to.
After the examination
4.35 Centres must ensure that all candidates’ work is saved and secure from unauthorised
access. Centres should safeguard this work in case it needs to be reprinted. After the
examination candidates’ work should be copied to a storage medium and kept secure by
the examination officer.
4.36 Final printouts should be collated, parcelled up and stored securely until the final
examination session has been held and then sent to the designated examiner.
4.37 All other examination material, including draft copies of candidates’ work, additional
printouts and question papers, must be collected by the invigilator at the end of each
session and stored in a secure place.
4.38 Any common user areas accessible to candidates must be cleared of all work saved during
the examination immediately after each session.
4.39 Candidates’ user areas should be removed at the end of the examination window or aftereach session if feasible. Centres must ensure that the user areas of those candidates who
have already sat the examination cannot be accessed by candidates who are sitting the
examination in a later session. Different passwords must be set up for each session.
Candidates with special requirements
4.40 In some circumstances, candidates with particular requirements may be given additional
time (up to a maximum of 40 minutes) to complete the examination. In this case, the
examination should be split into two parts so that candidates have a supervised rest break.
4.41 Centres must write to Special Requirements Department, Edexcel, One90 High Holborn,
London, WC1V 7BH requesting special arrangements. Please refer to the JCQ
Regulations and Guidance Relating to Candidates who are Eligible for Adjustments in
Examinations for further information.
5 CONTINGENCY PLANNING
It is strongly recommended that:
5.1 Examination sessions are scheduled in such a way as to allow time at the end of the
examination window to re-schedule any sessions which have had to be postponed as a
result of hardware failures, or other problems encountered earlier in the week.
5.2 Technical help is available during the examination to deal with ‘computer crashes’,
printer problems and other possible complications.

5.3 A number of ‘spare’ computers are available during the examination so as to allow
candidates to move to another machine if necessary.
5.4 Alternative printing facilities are available if necessary.
5.5 Up-to-date virus prevention measures are in place.
6 MISCONDUCT
6.1 This type of examination relies heavily on the integrity of candidates. Some centres have
experienced difficulties with practical examination of this nature. There have been
instances of candidates submitting work which was not their own, and of candidates
submitting identical work. In those cases where misconduct occurs, or is thought to have
occurred, this will be investigated and candidates may have their result withheld.
7 COVERSHEET
7.1 At the end of each examination, candidates are required to collate their printouts in
activity number order and put them inside the coversheet provided. When more than one
printout is required for a particular activity they should be placed in the order in which
they are requested in the examination paper.
7.2 The printouts and the coversheet will need to be hole punched to allow the treasury tag to
be inserted.
7.3 Page 2 of the cover sheet will have instructions to guide candidates through this process.
An example is provided below.
