Your child should have finished revising by now \u2013 last minute cramming is not productive or efficient. What matters at this point is them getting a good eight hours\u2019 shut-eye, so they feel alert in the morning. Make sure they have set an alarm (or two!) as well \u2013 this is not the day to oversleep.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"last_minute_rituals\"><\/a>Their bag should also be packed with all their exam materials and their\u00a0clothes laid out, so there is no panic in the morning.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; padding: 10px; border-radius: 10px; margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4>Ask the tutors: what were your last minute exam rituals?<\/h4>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;A good meal. If it was a morning exam I would eat porridge with peanut butter and a banana for slow release energy.&#8221;\u2013 Laurie<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I always tie my hair up into a ponytail just before an exam starts \u2013 I guess it makes me feel like I\u2019m about to begin a race!&#8221; \u2013 Anna<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<a id=\"what_to_bring\" style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/a>Playing the piano and Sudoku.

If not, your child should leave their phone at home. In 2013, 814 students were penalised for having a phone on them during an exam.<\/p>\n<h3>Arriving at the exam<\/h3>\n<p>It is absolutely essential that your child arrives on time. Leave extra time to get to school in case of traffic or other transport\u00a0delays. Your child should aim to be there at least 10-15 minutes before the start of their exam. <strong>If they arrive late, their work might not be accepted<\/strong>. Additionally, arriving at an exam late and flustered is not a good way to get their head in the game. <a id=\"unexpected_problems\"><\/a>The extra minutes at the start will give them the chance to relax and get mentally prepared for the exam.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"#top\">Back to top<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-post-section-header\">\n<h2>Unexpected problems and emergencies<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p>If any of the below occurs, the main thing to remember is not to panic. Systems are in place to help students cope.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; padding: 10px; border-radius: 10px; margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4>Ask the tutors: did you experience any unexpected problems on the day of an exam, and if so, how were they resolved?<\/h4>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I had an issue in one of my physics exams where the formula sheet wasn\u2019t in my paper booklet. I had to put my hand up and ask for it. It was easily resolved. However, I\u2019d recommend checking you have all the material at the start of the paper.&#8221; \u2013 Chris<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"sickness\"><\/a>&#8220;Finding the location of an exam can become so much harder if you are rushed and stressed. Make sure to leave in plenty of time and research how to get there \u2013 Google Maps is great as it gives you an idea of what the place looks like.&#8221; \u2013 Laurie<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Sickness<\/h3>\n<p><a id=\"oversleeping\"><\/a>If your child is sick on the day of the exam, please ring their school or college and let them know as soon as possible. Be sure to get a medical certificate from a doctor to prove that it is a severe illness \u2013 a light cold or a runny nose doesn\u2019t count. The exam officer will let the exam board know.<\/p>\n<h3>Oversleeping<\/h3>\n<p>If a student does not turn up to an exam, some schools will phone their home or parents to see if they are asleep. Depending on your school and\/or the exam board, your child may, if they can get to the exam site in time, be allowed to start the exam late (with no recourse to make up the missed time). <a id=\"severe_weather\"><\/a>If they oversleep and completely miss the exam however, there is little you can do. With this in mind, it is imperative to make sure they are up and at school on the big day!<\/p>\n<h3>Severe weather<\/h3>\n<p><a id=\"special_consideration\"><\/a>As much as the British may love to make small talk about the weather, it rarely proves to be an active problem in our lives. However, in the case of severe weather, allow extra time to travel and check for updates from your school or college. If weather conditions mean you will arrive late, ring your school to let them know. Depending on how late you are, you might still be able to sit the exam. Your exams officer will\u00a0tell you what your options are.\u00a0If many students arrive late, you will all sit the exam. Your exams officer can apply for special consideration.<\/p>\n<h3>Special consideration<\/h3>\n<p>Special consideration can be applied when a student, despite being fully prepared for an exam, is disadvantaged due to unavoidable circumstances or illness at the time of the exam or coursework submission. In these situations, a small boost is given to the raw mark.<\/p>\n<p>If a student is absent from an exam for a valid reason, a mark will be calculated for the missing unit, provided the student has completed enough of the specification to meet minimum requirements (as specified by the JCQ). The calculation of the mark takes into account the national average and the student\u2019s marks in other modules, and is considered to be fair. The mark cannot be based on predicted grades issued by your child\u2019s school. The school\/college must support a student\u2019s request for special consideration.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"other_advice\"><\/a>You can read more about special consideration on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aqa.org.uk\/exams-administration\/special-consideration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AQA website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; padding: 10px; border-radius: 10px; margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<h4>Ask the tutors: do you have any other advice for parents and\/or students?<\/h4>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Providing encouragement after each paper is a key factor in retaining motivation, especially if your child didn\u2019t feel like the exam went well&#8221; &#8211; Chris<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The (exam board) specification is a key document, as it fully describes everything you should know prior to your exam, and everything they could potentially test; use it to ensure you understand everything that could come up!&#8221; \u2013 Oliver<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You need down time.
