    The sooner we ALL follow ScotGov rules and recommendations, the sooner we can ALL go about our business ...without risking others lives, and exam results.

    There is plenty time for something to be arranged for the sqa exams. Dont understand why exams cant go ahead. Children deserve the right to sit the exams and not have results based on prelims. Prelims are different all over the country and some schools dont even use them. Unfair set of circumstances. LET THE KIDS SIT EXAMS AND GET THE RESULTS THEY DESERVE OR GIVE THEM THE OPTION SIT THE EXAM IF THEY CHOSE NOT TO THEN THATS DOWN TO THEM

    A lot more invigilators would have e been needed so also PVG checks. All that means a lot more workers for the administration involved at a time when any workforce is depleted by illness and household isolation.
    A lot of invigilators are retired people and many over 70. None should be in a place with many other people.
    Security of content a big issue too.
    Don’t let people with little knowledge underestimate.
