INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE GUIDANCE OF SUPERVISORS.

The examinations will be held in the order and at the times prescribed in the time-table, which will be supplied to each Supervisor and candidate. The Supervisor shall be present during the entire examination, and he is not to answer any inquiry or express any opinion as to the meaning of any question in the examination-papers. He will allot a seat to each candidate at each sitting, and not allow any to choose his own. Pens, ink, ruled foolscap paper, blotting-paper, pins, and paper-fasteners will be supplied to each candidate at each sitting as he takes his seat in the examinationroom. Candidates shall not be permitted to speak to each other or communicate with any person in the room except the Supervisor, and with that exception strict silence must be observed during the examination. Any candidate detected in the examination-room in possession of any book or manuscript brought in for his assistance, or in copying from the papers of another candidate, or permitting his own papers to be copied, or in attempting to give or receive assistance of any description, will be disqualified; his examination will be discontinued, and the circumstances reported to the Commissioner. No candidate shall be permitted to leave the room during the hours of examination without finally giving up his papers, and any candidate arriving after the examination has commenced shall not be admitted. Any candidate who may have finished his replies to the questions in his examination-paper before the expiry of the time allowed may deliver them to the Supervisor and retire from the room. The examination-papers will be sent in sealed packets to the Supervisor, who will keep them locked up under his own special care until he takes them to the examination-room. At the hour prescribed in the time-table for the commencement of the examination in each particular subject the Supervisor will break the seal and open the packet containing the examination-papers in the presence of all the candidates sitting for that subject, and then distribute the sealed envelopes contained in the packet to the candidates to whom they are addressed. Each candidate will be given an examination - number, which, he is to record plainly at the top of each sheet of paper handed in by him containing his replies to questions in the examination-paper. A candidate’s name must on no account appear on any paper or map handed in by him. At or before the hour prescribed for the closing of the examination in each subject, each candidate will hand to the Supervisor the papers containing his replies to the questions in such subject. As he receives each set of papers the Supervisor, after satisfying himself that the candidate’s examination number is plainly inserted at the top of each paper handed in, will place them in a large envelope prepared for that purpose. When all the candidates’ papers have been received, the Supervisor will secure and seal the envelope and cause it to be posted forthwith to the Commissioner, after first marking on the bottom left-hand corner the date and hour it left his hands to be posted.
