Preparation for Half Yearly Exams

Exam preparation is a crucial thing in our system. In fact, SMT have started collecting the half yearly papers since the end of October. The Half yearly exams are held in February, with the next session due to start in mid-February 2019. The exams will last two weeks.

Apart from collecting the scripts, we as SMT, have started preparing for the amount of photocopies of exam papers that need to be ordered. This is done on an excel sheet and next week will be sent to the persons concerned. 

Before the Christmas recess, my colleagues in charge of year 10 and 11 have to work together to finalise the exam timetable. This will become available to the students when we enter back to school in the first week of January. After giving out the timetable, then we will work on the invigilation schedule, and who is marking whose exam papers.

 Exams are a normal process in schools, taken for granted by everybody. As a teacher, I had never realised that it involved so much preparation. These new experiences are helping me to grow and are also making this year more and more memorable.
