2018 October/November Examinations

MORNING period commences 9.00 a.m.

AFTERNOON period commences at 2.00 p.m.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS AND NOTES

This time-table should be displayed on the centre notice board.

1. The time allowed for each paper is shown against the name of the paper and NO
EXTRA TIME IS TO BE ALLOWED. Any time allocated for reading through
questions, studying maps, etc is included in the total time shown.

2. Centres please note that the time-tabled examination dates (as appearing on this
time-table) take precedence over all examination dates quoted elsewhere in any
other documents from ZIMSEC, viz:- statements of entry, attendance registers, etc,
unless otherwise advised officially by the Council in separate correspondence other
than documents quoted above.

3.1 Papers included in the same session: Where a candidate is offering two papers of
the same subject which are time-tabled for the same examination session, a short
break should be allowed between the two papers.

3.2 Time-table clashes: If a candidate is entered for two or more papers that are time-
tabled for the same examination session, both papers must be taken in the same
session. A time-table deviation application must be submitted to ZIMSEC before the
examination.

Please note that in all instances where a time-table deviation occurs, candidates
starting an examination other than at the scheduled time must be kept isolated from
candidates who have already taken the paper. For further information regarding
time-table clashes, please contact ZIMSEC.

4. The ZIMSEC regulations specify that entries to all Subjects which require specified
examination equipment may only be accepted from Centres which are approved as
being adequately equipped. On this basis ZIMSEC lays down the date and time of
the examination and no other periods are permitted. Centres MUST ENSURE that
they have the facilities available for the number of candidates entered for those
Subjects.
