We can confirm that for this academic year (2020/21), practical endorsement monitoring for A Level sciences will be carried out remotely.

This means, if you are due to be monitored this academic year, you'll be contacted by one of our monitors and they will let you know how to share files to allow them to review your teacher and student records. Our monitor will also arrange a video call to discuss the review. A practical lesson observation will not be required.

Remote monitoring will begin in November 2020. 

For further information, you can view the cross-exam board guidance on what remote monitoring involves below:

Practical endorsement guidance for remote monitoring

You can also view our Positive about practical web page which contains videos on the practical endorsement monitoring. We will update this web page as more details on the remote monitoring process become available.

If you would like further information please contact us on 01223 553998 or email science@ocr.org.uk.
