In the event of a centre exceeding 120 candidates, additional Supervising Examiner/s need to be appointed.

6 In case a Centre has two or more Supervising Examiners, one of the Supervising Examiners should be designated as the Chief Supervising Examiner , who will be overall responsible for the proper conduct of the examination at his/her centre. (ii) The Supervising Examiner should be a responsible, competent and impartial person, teaching an academic subject at the level of examination, who has normally nothing to do with the candidates under examination, and not a member of the staff of the school at which the Centre is located. (iii) The appointment of Conveners and Supervising Examiners shall be subject to the approval of the Chief Executive and Secretary of the COUNCIL . The approval may be assumed unless there is any communication to the contrary. (iv) The Invigilators should be school teachers, but will not invigilate over candidates of their own schools.

7 Against this background, the Conveners are requested to nominate Supervising Examiners and Invigilators as per the guidelines given below: 1. Where there are many schools affiliated to the COUNCIL in one city, teachers from the affiliated schools are to be selected in such a way that they do not Supervise/Invigilate over their own school candidates. 2. The Supervising Examiner and Heads of Schools are asked to make absolutely certain that the Invigilators appointed are not teachers of the subject(s) under examination. 3. Where there is only one school in a locality, the Convener is requested to nominate reliable persons, other than from the school, known for their integrity and educational standing as Supervising Examiners and Invigilators. 5 1. CALENDAR FOR ICSE EXAMINATION OF MARCH 2015 15th December 2014 : Last date for receipt of applications for transfer of centers.

8 15th February 2015 : Last date for receiving withdrawal applications. 2. CHANGE OF SUBJECTS NOT TO BE PERMITTED Change of subjects will not be permitted once the entries for the ICSE Examination have been confirmed by the schools. Heads of Schools should therefore, ensure that all candidates are entered for the correct subjects on the entry form and should make it clear to the candidates that no change of subjects will be permitted. 3. UNDER PROTEST ENTRIES In extraordinary circumstances, the COUNCIL may permit a candidate to take a subject Under Protest following the usual Under Protest procedure. The results of such candidates will not be issued with the result of the school and may be delayed considerably. Heads of Schools are reminded that subjects may be taken Under Protest only by school candidates (in regular attendance at school) entered for the examination.

9 The following details are given for the attention of Heads of Schools sending candidates for the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education Examination. Under Protest entries can only be accepted where the Head of the School has made an error in the entry of a School candidate. The procedure given below must be followed if the candidate is allowed to sit for an additional subject for which he/she is not shown as entered on the Attendance List. (a) Answer scripts written by a candidate who is not entered for the subject must be sent to the Chief Executive and Secretary, COUNCIL for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, immediately after the paper has been taken. A script envelope must be used and the words UNDER PROTEST must be written on it.

10 The script must be sent with a note explaining the error and a statement showing which alternative papers, if any, within the subject the candidate has taken. Full details of Under Protest entries giving reason for such entries and the action taken on them must be sent with the necessary fee to the Chief Executive and Secretary, COUNCIL for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, New Delhi. (b) The Under Protest scripts, provided the appropriate fee has been paid and are approved by the COUNCIL , will be marked separately. The results will not necessarily be issued at the same time with the main batch of results. (c) The Chief Executive and Secretary reserves the right to refuse to issue results to candidates in cases which he does not consider to be valid.
