h1, good to know.

This on the Hub announcements section might be useful for those who have not seen it - says online exams remain (unless you choose in person exams which also are possible). My twins have already chosen online as it worked fine for the PGDL and avoids risks of travel delays etc.




 

Dear All


I’m sure many of you saw the Legal Cheek article a week or so ago about the LPC students returning to in-person exams and I just wanted to put your mind at rest.  It is correct that the SRA’s approval to run exams remotely in response to Covid-19 was only a temporary measure and the SRA made it clear that LPC providers should return to in-person exams as soon as the UK government lifted social distancing restrictions. 

BPP has been successfully running online exams, via our Inspera online assessment platform, since March 2020 and we have received some very positive student feedback about the benefits of sitting exams online, e.g., sitting an exam in familiar surroundings, removes the risk of travel disruption travelling to an assessment centre, avoids the stress of mixing with other students at the assessment centres – all talking about what they have revised!  We have also run student focus groups during the pandemic and the clear message from students was that they would like exams to continue online post-pandemic.  BPP therefore applied to the SRA for permanent approval to run exams online (post-pandemic).  BPP’s application was successful and we have approval to continue running LPC exams online.  We know that online exams do not suit all students and so, as you are aware, we are offering our students the choice between online or a paper exam in an assessment centre (possibly at an external venue).
