June 2010 exams

New-look question papers and how our examiners will mark long answers on screen

For exams with separate question papers and answer books, there will be:

• new numbering system using two digits
• a new-look answer book with spaces for candidates to write the two-digit question numbers.

You need read no further if you teach components unaffected by these changes.

If you teach any components/units affected by these changes, read about the changes to question papers and how examiners will mark long answers.

A few question papers (mainly legacy GCSE in their last year of operation), are exempt from changes to question numbering but continue to work with the JCQ separate answer book.

These subjects that currently use separate question papers and answer books will become combined question paper answer books in June 2010.
