[Academic] Resit timetable & draft guidance for students

[Brian]

Dear All,

Audrey McKinnon (cc'ed) will be acting as the sole emergency contact 
number for students during the resit diet of exams. Please can you 
ensure that her number 0141 548 4134 is clearly displayed for students 
at the start of your Myplace resit page. As all exams start at 09:30, 
Audrey will be available from 09:15 on each exam day.

Please can each module organiser also pass on their personal contact 
number to allow her to contact you if needed. You should be available 
for the full duration of your exam (including any extra disability 
requirements) + 30min. *Please provide her with this information in the 
following format:*

Module: PH???

Name: A.N. Other

Contact number: 07981 ??? ???

Thanks,

Brian.
