Get your marked exam papers back

This year we're running a trial for schools and colleges to download copies of marked exam papers in five subjects.

What subjects

  • Geography - National 5 and Higher
  • Graphic Communication - National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher
  • Media - National 5
  • Music - National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher
  • Statistics - Advanced Higher

These subjects were chosen to give a variety of subject areas, marking instructions, and entry numbers for the trial.

What dates

  • Opens Tuesday 6 August
  • Closes Tuesday 27 September

The SQA co-ordinator at your school or college will be able to download your marked exam paper for you.

You can use your marked exam paper to inform your appeals decision.

Your teacher can also use it to tailor future teaching plans and refine their teaching approach.

For example, your marked exam paper can help your teacher identify areas or topics that need to be taught in more depth in the future.

Our markers use symbols during the marking process. Your school will share the marking instructions with you, and these will provide a guide to the symbols, but how they are used will depend on the subject.

Yes, you need to give written permission to your school or college to access your marked exam paper for you.

Yes. You will need to tell your school and they will dispose of all copies of your marked exam paper in line with their privacy policy

The survey closes on Friday 27 September.
