Higher Science exams - packaging reminder

We'd like to remind you of important information about the packaging of materials for the Higher Chemistry and Higher Physics exams in May. Please ensure that you discuss this with your chief invigilator before these exams. 

There are specific packaging requirements as candidate papers are sent to separate destinations. The multiple-choice element (Paper 1 in both cases) must be packaged using white SQA/Parcelforce address labels.  

The written element (Paper 2) must be packaged using yellow SQA/Parcelforce address labels

Ensuring the correct packaging of these materials is crucial as it means that we can progress marking of candidate papers to schedule, and process results in a timely manner. It is the responsibility of the chief invigilator (along with other invigilators as required) to package all candidate materials for collection, following packaging guidelines. 

If you, or your chief invigilator, have any questions about packaging of materials, please contact the Script Management team on script.management@sqa.org.uk or 0345 213 6612 (option 2).
