The ability to allocate extra time for particular subjects for a candidate so this is displayed on their exam timetable

Allow import of CIE component results spreadsheet

The CIE awarding body have supplied component results in spreadsheet form for the June 2025 exams. It would be useful if we could import these into isams so that we can include them in the results information we provide to pupils and staff.

Add exam/s duration to seating plans

Add/Remove Students from Seating Plans

We use a few different rooms as exam rooms, so need to create multiple seating plans. Sometimes we need to move a student to a different room (maybe for a change in access arrangements etc). However, as far as I can see, it is not possible to edit...
