ABSTRACT
Amongst those colleagues are the Headteacher and his/her senior management team members, and the Chair of Governors. It has been known for a Chair of Governors to ask for the completed analysis of the results on the first day of the new term. The pressures placed upon the examination secretary to satisfy the requirements of his or her colleagues assume considerable importance when the media require instant data and comment. Indeed, such pressures can become immense when the school is promised an early slot on the breakfast time news, where successful candidates can be canvassed for their reaction to their results!
