Grade 7 Composite Exam

Important Instructions for Candidates and Teachers Before Examinations

As exams approach, teachers and supervisors must ensure that students are well-prepared to follow these important guidelines to avoid issues during the examination:

1. 1. Exam Room Protocol: Students must be seated in the Examination Room at least five minutes before the exam begins. Talking is strictly prohibited once inside.
   2. Handling Exam Papers: If given the wrong exam paper, students must immediately inform the Supervisor.
   3. General Instructions: Students should pay attention to instructions on the question paper, such as using the correct stationery.
   4. Answer Sheet Guidelines: Do not fold answer sheets, copy questions, or spend too much time on one question. Hand in answer sheets when instructed to stop writing.
   5. Late Arrivals: Students arriving more than 30 minutes late will not be allowed to take the exam.
   6. Special Needs: Students with special educational needs are entitled to 25% extra writing time.

Cautions Against Malpractice:

1. 1. Examination Malpractice: Students must not bring unauthorized materials like books or phones into the exam room. Doing so will result in nullification of results.
   2. Teacher Misconduct: Teachers or any person helping students cheat will face criminal prosecution, and the student’s results will be voided.
   3. Awareness: Teachers must inform students of the consequences of cheating, which include nullification of all results and being barred from future exams.
   4. Misconduct: Disorderly behavior, use of vulgar language, or causing disturbances near the exam room will lead to disqualification.

By following these guidelines, students and teachers can ensure a smooth examination process free of malpractices.
