Copy Seating Plans
It’s common for the same group of students to sit more than one exam paper as a group, for instance, GCSE English has 2 papers. Now, you only need to make the seating plan for a group once. If they are in the same room(s), you can copy the seating plan from one event to another.
When you copy the seating plan the following rules apply:
-
Learners will be seated in the same room at the same desk.
-
If a learner has withdrawn since paper 1, their desk will remain empty.
-
Only learners are copied. Assigned staff are not copied.
-
New entries will not be seated, these can be added as normal.
