1. Always access Canvas using Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Firefox. Do not use Safari

2. If you have problems accessing your exam email your school office immediately [email protected].

4. If you are required to type answers into text boxes, you may wish to draft these in Word and then copy and paste into Canvas to avoid any errors when submitting.

5. You will only have one opportunity to submit your exam, so be careful not to submit your exam until all sections are complete.  

6. You have 2 hours to complete AND submit the exam (note that Sussex Direct will only show the work time of the exam in your Assessment Timetable)**.  Allow enough time (at least 30 minutes)** to ORGANISE, SAVE, and SUBMIT.  Do not leave the uploading/submission to the last 5 minutes. It may result in you missing the deadline and having to do a resit.

7. If you have extra time due to Reasonable Adjustments this is already added to your exam on Canvas, and you will see a different deadline to the one below.

8. After the exam end time you will NOT be able to submit because the Canvas link will have expired. If you fail to submit by the deadline/exam end time, your exam grade will be ZERO.

9. If you experience any difficulties submitting your exam, refer to the submission issue guidance on the last page of this document.

Guidance for students regarding submission issues: 

1. If you are unable to take/complete your exam due to a sudden and unforeseen situation, follow the guidance on Exceptional Circumstances.  This will not allow you to submit late, but depending on if you meet the criteria, you may be offered an uncapped resit.

Be aware that technical issues are not accepted criteria for Exceptional Circumstances claims. 

2. If you have completed your exam but experience issues submitting your exam, (such as a problem with Canvas/connectivity), email the school office at [email protected] within 15 minutes* of the exam end time, with a screen shot showing the problem you are experiencing.

*If you have an issue that prevented you from contacting us within the 15-minute timeframe, such as an internet provider issue that required the attendance of a service provider, the Directors of Teaching and Learning may consider your case if notified by midnight (UK Time) on the day of submission. However, in order to consider your case, at a minimum they will need a copy of your work saved as a pdf file, unedited past the end time of the exam, plus clear evidence of the issue you experienced. They will then consider your case and make a decision at their discretion, on whether the exam will be accepted.
