Exam papers; when does your school release them to teachers?

Does your school allow release of papers to staff once the exam
session is over and all candidates from your centre have completed it?
Some schools say you have to wait until the next day, but that makes no sense; the pupils have seen it so it is ‘out there’.
i have looked through exam regs and can’t find any statement. There used to-be something at the end saying papers could be released at the end of the session.

I’ve always been given the papers by my exams officer pretty much straight away. This is maths so never any risk of a clash. Definitely no “24 hour” rule (and my exams officer is a stickler for rules).

There's no 24hr rule. If there ever was one it's now gone.

We tend to get them after the exam has finished for all students. Could be afternernoons for morning papers or next day for afternoon done ones

If you go on Twitter or TSR about 10minutes after the exam most of the questions (& potentially a mark scheme) will be there.
I've missed student Twitter. They are so funny and witty. Recommend anyone reading if stressed about kids exams. My favourite was the biology alcopops question and the drunk rats.
We get the exam papers once they've been packed and sent off. If there's a clash we have to wait.
