DD wants copies of some of hers, but not for a remark.

Is it possible? I know we may have to pay.

Yes you can. You'll have to pay per script. The exams officer can organise this for you. Usually returned scripts are now emailed.

For edexcel it seems to be free.

That's interesting to hear, I'll be pursuing that. DD2 got a 9 in English Lang and felt her creative writing piece was one of the best things she had ever written and would like it back for her records. She writes creatively for fun and has a clear style all her own. Her board is EdExcel, nice to hear this is possible.

Hi I’m interested in this for exactly same reasons as Pointythings. Board is AQA

wow pointy things that's really cool!

My DD's school called in her Eng lit as she got 30/30 in three of the elements (boast) and as it was the first year (2 yrs ago) they wanted it as an exemplar 😊😊

clary that happened with DD1 and it isn't implausible that it might happen with DD2's Lang papers as a whole. It's lovely when they really nail it.

Yes, you can get exam papers back, but it is normally to assist with teaching or to see if a remark is needed. Edexcel are free, AQA about £14. Your exam officer will need to order them for you. Edexcel email, AQA post them

Our school are charging £14 per paper per script even for Edexcel?
Dd 2 marks off next grade so possibly want a remark. Have asked for papers via a form that we were I instructed to email.
On email form we were told to put the actual form in school post box with cheque or cash. No mention of who to write cheque to. Now it appears its £14 per paper need to return to school again. So easy - not.
Feeling 😗🙄
