Provisional version of the timetable
Timetable deviations
The final version of the timetable will be published in
February 2015.
If you need to arrange overnight supervision, the
forms do not need to be returned to OCR but must
be completed and held in your centre records. When
a change is made to the published starting time of
an examination, it is the responsibility of the centre to
inform all candidates affected by the alteration.
Centres must ensure that candidates take OCR’s
examinations at the times indicated on the timetable.
In notifying candidates of the dates and times of their
examinations, centres must not place reliance upon
the provisional timetable which is provided for the
purpose of consultation only.
Starting times of examinations
The published starting time of all examinations is either
9.00 am or 1.30 pm. Each examination must be taken
on the day and at the time shown on the timetable.
Centres may change the starting time of an
examination within the scheduled morning or
afternoon session without notifying OCR but
candidates must start morning examinations no
earlier than 8.30 am and by 9.30 am and afternoon
examinations no earlier than 1.00 pm and by 2.00 pm.
Candidates with more than one examination in a
session should take these consecutively. A supervised
break may be given between examinations taken
consecutively at the discretion of the centre.
Centres may decide the order in which to conduct
examinations for candidates taking more than one
examination in a session.
Leaving the examination
Candidates must remain under supervision until 10.00
am for morning examinations and until 2.30 pm for
afternoon examinations. For examinations of less
than one hour’s duration, the candidates must remain
under supervision for a period equal to the duration
of the examination after the published starting time
shown on the timetable.
Interboard Examinations Timetable
