Coquitlam Learning Opportunity Centre (CLOC) Test Writing Policy
The intention of our test writing policy is to ensure the highest possible academic standards. We encourage the use of in-person testing wherever possible.
In-person testing is held at CLOC during our regular hours on a scheduled or drop-in basis. Students are required to bring in valid government photo identification when writing tests.
Students who reside in Metro Vancouver or the Fraser Valley are expected to attend all required in-person testing at CLOC.
Students living outside Metro Vancouver or the Fraser Valley who are unable to attend CLOC for in-person testing are responsible for finding a test supervisor who is a BC Certified teacher registered with the BC Teacher Regulation Branch. Potential testing supervisors will be required to fill out a testing supervisor screening form. Students are responsible for informing teachers to make off-site testing arrangements. Please click here to download a copy of our test supervisor screener form.
