L3C10: Change in H&S exam date - again!

Hi all,

Please read the following important message about your upcoming H&S exam and the ongoing rail strikes.

After communicating with the RSPH it has been decided that your H&S exam date will now take place the following week of the published scheduled timetable. The H&S exam will now take place on Tuesday 4th April 2023 - the exam time has also change and will sit between 2pm and 3pm - arrive at North Tees for 13:30pm).

There will be no CPD teaching session following the exam so you can leave at 3pm - you may also bring any luggage / bags to the exam venue after you have checked out of your hotel.

I appreciate that some of you have already booked accommodation and transport - in the event of the rail strikes for the tickets that have been pre purchased you should be fully refunded, as there is an option within the rail operators’ online platforms to select ‘No longer travelling due to strike’. You should also be bale to change your accommodation dates accordingly.

Finally, I appreciate that some of you have rotas, holiday and shifts planned and we have not taken this decision lightly - so please inform your line manager of this important change to your timetable.

Kind regards,

Darren

Hi Abigail - I am not sure - I think we only have the exam venue from 1pm - I would contact Jade Murray to confirm.

Hi Danielle - yes this will be the definitive date and we have already booked the exam venue for the afternoon of the 4th April. We normally do not like changing any dates on the timetable because it causes so many problems. You can expect to leave just after 3 pm, so book your taxi back to the rail station / airport you are going to just after this - book your taxi closer to the date to pick you up from outside North Hospital main reception (see map below) as it is literally a 1 - 2 min walk form the exam venue.

I am hoping there are no changes again to your timetable again and I appreciate this is no fault of yours.

The exam venue (Middlefield centre) will be open at 13:30hrs on the day so get there for that time. There is a Subway, shop, and Greggs just opposite the Middlefield centre if you want to arrive early and have lunch before the exam. Just hand around like lost sheep outside the venue front door and I will be waiting.

Kind regards,

Darren.
