Record and verify an external examination result
Who can use this: Assigned reporting staff with the relevant permissions.
Before you start
Use source evidence from the awarding body. An external result is not a school forecast or an LMS grade.
Record and verify an external examination result
- Create the pupil’s result with the awarding body, qualification, syllabus, subject, examination session, exact awarded result and Examination date. Enter the date of the examination, not the date the result was released.
- Attach the permitted private file version as evidence and record its provenance. Save the unverified record for staff review.
- An authorized verifier checks the source and records a verified revision when the result is suitable for family access.
What happens next
Verified external results can appear in the eligible student and parent portals.
Troubleshooting
Unverified records remain staff-only. Keep the original result wording and source context. Family notices link to the portal; they do not turn private evidence into a public file.
