由於八號風球現正懸掛,原定11月2日舉行之劍橋大學入學考試 (CAT, ELAT, HAT, MAT, MLAT, PAT, TSA S1, TSA) 將會取消。

因應政府規定,在八號風球懸掛期間,所有國際考試必需取消或延期。

為了應考者、合作方及員工的安全著想,原定於下午3點舉行的劍橋大學入學考試將會取消。

英國文化協會已就相關情況聯絡劍橋大學考試院,考試院方面會將以上安排通知牛津大學。大學及考試局並沒有為相關情況定立補考日期。

作為其中一個在香港舉行以上考試的機構,香港英國文化協會將會為受影響的考生提供以下協助:

•           為受是次劍僑入學考試考試取消影響的考生提供全額退款

•           為受影響考生在11月8日前向考試院提交相關表格(Special Consideration Form)

我們會繼續與考試局聯繫,如有任何查詢,請聯絡英國文化協會考試服務 (examinations@britishcouncil.org.hk)。

對於是次由於天氣情況而導致考試取消,深感抱歉。
