13 Candidate list and attendance order
ABRSM Centres
a) The steward is provided with a candidate list showing the timetable for each day, including each candidate’s appointment time. Wherever possible, candidates are timetabled in the same order as listed on the entry form.
b) If a candidate is withdrawn from an entry (or given an alternative appointment), the appointment times for other candidates in the same entry must remain the same, i.e. later candidates may not be brought forward.
Visits
c) The Applicant hosting a Visit is sent a candidate list showing the timetable for the Visit. The list indicates the start and end times and any scheduled breaks. Wherever possible, candidates are timetabled in the same order as they were presented by the Applicant at the time of entry.
d) Should the Applicant hosting a Visit wish to alter the order in which candidates are examined, the following instructions must be observed: the overall time allocated to the Visit must not be changed; the timing of any scheduled lunch break must not be affected; the revised candidate list (indicating precisely the new appointment time for each candidate) must be presented to the examiner and the steward; any other Applicants whose candidates are participating in the Visit must be duly notified.
