I've just read the news report that schools will not receive their results by the July 8th deadline because of botch-ups in admin by ETS.
Myself and H have both marked KS2 Science this year. We each received 400+ scripts and marked them all and returned them by 22nd June, but the helpdesk were pretty useless at times. They are still ringing H up now to ask if he has sent his scripts back despite the fact that he submitted all scores and sent them back .The online tracking also says they have been collected and have arrived back at the depot. It also took them ages to add extra names onto the register for pupils whose scripts he received, but were not on the online register. They didn't manage to put their names on before the £100 incentive deadline anyway, but he submitted all other marks before then so they had better honour their incentive promise.
How has everyone else got on with marking this year? This is the first year we've done this.
