I can almost garantee that the majority of schools would be in the same position in regards to the exam procedures.
It is unfair to label them as some sort of special case in there method of dealing with the exams.
The fact that the practice is widespread is no excuse. The administration of PPL TK exams has become a farce, with virtually anyone given access to the papers.
You can also be a ground examinor without being issued with a set of exam papers.
You may not be issued with your own papers, but when you accept the nomination you become responsible for the papers held by that school.
