Information requested
I require information regarding the number of candidates taking both Engineering Science and Physics simultaneously at all levels.
Response
Under section 17 of the Act when an authority does not hold information, it must inform the requester of this.
We are unable to provide any information for this as no candidates will be sitting these exams simultaneously as they are not scheduled at the same time and are therefore not classed as coincident exams.
The Physics exams for Higher and Advanced Higher are being held on the morning of 15 May 2025 and the Nat 5 exam is being held in the afternoon of the same date.
The Engineering Science exams for National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher are being held on the afternoon of the 16 May 2025.
