Central Examination Timetable Data

Exams and Assessment Services will be contacting ELOs in to request information to be used in the scheduling of the central examination timetable for April/May 2026. We will be collecting responses from 3 November until 3 December.

This is not an opportunity to change assessment methods (eg Exam to Coursework).

The purpose of this exercise is to ensure that the details held on Portico for each examination to be centrally run and/or timetabled are accurate, and to submit any specific timetabling requests. This information will be used to produce the central examination timetable. Please note that failure to carry out this task thoroughly may result in an incorrect timetable being published to students.

Assessment Operating Model 2025/26 

You are strongly advised to familiarise yourself with the assessment regulations, which can be found here.

The following exam delivery methods are available this year:

1. In-person written examinations (centrally organised exams will take place at the ExCeL Centre)
2. In-person digital exams. These will be centrally organised and will take place at the ExCeL Centre.
3. Remote online time-limited assessments (centrally organised assessments will be delivered via WISEflow).

Resits 

If an examination has moved to/from in-person/online since last year, you may switch the resit candidates to the new delivery method.  This does not constitute a change of assessment method.

Use of Other Digital Platforms for Centrally Timetabled Examinations 

Where you would prefer to deliver a centrally timetabled online examination yourselves using a platform other than WISEflow (e.g. Moodle), there will be a space for you to indicate this.
