In my daughter’s school:marks are adjusted from previous exam(SA1,CA1,CA2) taken.There is no retest.

Poor Buds. Take care. I think no point worry so much about exams. Just let the school do whatever adjustment they want. HEALTH is more important than marks!


My DS’s school has very clear exam policy. No re-test too. The subject that the child missed will be reported as "NA" on the report book if mc is produced. I supposed some adjustment to previous exams will be made to calculate the final combined score.

Don worry so much. Hope all you and your family recover soon! Take care!

What's your child's school policy if your child is sick on exam days (with mc)?


1. Schedule a re-test
2. Forfeit the paper and get a zero for missed papers
3. Forfeit the paper but marks adjusted from previous exam
4. Child can come down just to sit for paper in a separate room (due to illness)
5. Others.. (please do share)

Our school policy is (3). No re-test for written papers

My son's school doesn't have re-tests for SAs. Last year he missed sitting for the EL SA2 paper, so the grade was calibrated up to CA2.

Yes, our school policy is the same

Looks like a lot of schools is going the easy way out… no retest, no marking, no scheduling, no planning… no stress…

Oh dear :hugs: To you and your kiddos.


DD's school stated very clearly what are the papers that can be taken at an alternative date and which ones cannot. DS's school no, info at all.

Is it still possible for your DD to get the exam script? If possible, she can bring it back and take the test at home. The results may not go into her report card but at least she will still be able to see how she fare and her effort will not go to waste.

Take care and make sure to keep hydrated ok.
