Staff should have My examination entries on their menu and can access the mark sheets via the Coursework button on this form. They should make sure they have the correct examination set and staff name selected before clicking the button.

This now opens the first of their marksheets and they can use the navigation buttons to look at the others. For each candidate they must enter a status letter (normally V for valid mark) and a mark in the appropriate range. The mark is restricted to the appropriate range for that module. The Data column is completed automatically.

Once the marks have been entered the teacher should click the Mark as complete button. This locks the entries and prevents the teacher making further changes. Until this is clicked, the teacher can adjust the marks. The button now disappears. On the Coursework tab of the Examination Officer menu, a tick is now displayed in the column 1st check. The 2nd check column is for the Examinations Officer’s use to confirm that a final check has been made on the marks.

Once all the coursework marks have been entered the Exams Officer can go to the Export files tab, select the appropriate head number, board and centre number and then click the Create Coursework file button. There is currently no way of sending amendments to this file.
