The exam boards offer a post result service (PRS), this ranges from requesting a copy of your exam paper to having your exam reviewed to make sure it has been marked correctly and fairly. Some of these options are chargeable (full price list will be available on results day), and before any can be requested full payment and completed forms, signed by the student must be received by the Exam Office.
Each PRS is explained below.
Review of Results (ROR)
This will be charged per paper, not subject. Please be aware that no grades are protected and they can go down or stay the same as well as going up. If they grade changes following a ROR the exam board will not charge.
Teachers cannot request a ROR without the student’s written permission.
