Due to adverse weather conditions, a small number of exam centres have been unable to open today affecting the opportunity for some candidates to sit the National Qualification in Journalism examinations.

We are pleased that the majority of centres are open as usual and would like to thank everyone who has travelled to our centres in difficult conditions – exam candidates, centre staff and volunteer assessors and interviewees.

All candidates who have been affected by centre closures have been notified and we are grateful for their understanding and willingness to be transferred to the next NQJ. We are very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused them and, rather than waiting until July, we have decided to organise a special exam sitting in April for all candidates who were affected by centre closures or were unable to travel. We will be in touch with candidates to discuss the detailed arrangements.

For further information, please contact us on 01799 544014.
