Missing Examination Script Policy
CILEx processes thousands of examination
scripts each year. Candidates’ answer scripts are sent between the
examination centres, CILEx, Examiners, marking teams and
moderators.
CILEx makes every effort to ensure that the
courier services used are professional, efficient and reliable, and
that comprehensive tracking systems are in place to ensure the
safety of every candidate’s examination script. However, it is
acknowledged that despite CILEx’s robust procedures there remains a
small risk that a script may be damaged or go missing.
Therefore, as a professional and awarding
body, it is essential that CILEx has in place a policy, in the
event of a missing or badly damaged script or scripts.
The Security
of Examination Scripts balances CILEx’s responsibility
to protect the integrity of the professional qualifications
alongside its responsibility to ensure the fair and equal treatment
of examination candidates.
