EXAMINATION REQUIREMENTS
June 2011
This booklet has been produced to assist examination officers in the conduct of the June 2011
GCE, GCSE, Functional Skills, Certificate in Latin and Level 2 Additional Maths examinations.
The booklet lists chronologically all the examinations to be held in May and June 2011 and gives
details of the stationery and other requirements for each examination, along with any special
instructions relating to DVDs, CDs etc. GCE A/AS subjects are listed on pages 3-19, GCSE
subjects are listed on pages 20- 36, Functional Skills subjects are listed on page 37, Certificate in
Latin subjects are listed on page 38 and Level 2 Additional Maths is listed on Page 39.
The information is provided under the following headings:
Answer Books
For each examination, an indication is given as to the likely requirement per candidate.
Clearly, this information can only be a guide as some candidates will write more than others.
However, it does provide an indication as to the basic requirements, and it identifies those
subjects where this stationery is not required at all.
The following indicators have been used:
“12p+” Candidates will require at least one 12 page booklet and will probably require
additional 12 or 4 page booklets also.
“12p” A 12 page booklet will be sufficient for most candidates.
“8p” An 8 page booklet will be sufficient for most candidates.
“4p” A 4 page continuation booklet should be sufficient for most candidates. This
applies to examinations where most of the questions are answered in a
question-and-answer booklet, but a small amount may need to be written in a
separate booklet.
“” No 12, 8 or 4 paged booklets are required. This applies to examinations where
answers to all questions are written in a question-and-answer booklet.
Other Materials
This covers additional items which are issued with the question papers and which candidates
will require in addition to a copy of the question paper.
Examples are: Resource Material, Data Booklets, Graph Paper etc.
Exam Aids
This covers other items which candidates may require in the examination which are usually
provided by the centre/candidate (e.g. calculators, dictionaries etc).
Special note relating to Calculators - Calculators are only listed in this booklet where they
are likely to be required by candidates. They are however now permitted in all WJEC
examinations unless specifically prohibited in the specification.
General Information
A range of subject specific information is included, e.g. where envelopes containing DVDs
and CDs may be opened in advance of the examination.
