Have any of you ever heard of anyone getting an LPAT paper re-marked and then upgraded as a result?


Cheers Very Happy

Many thx Oxi and Kpjf! Smile

LPAT stands for "Language Proficiency Assessment for Teachers"

The exams are in reading, writing, listening, speaking + classroom assessment (if u teach in a school).

Someone told me u can't be employed in a HK school, full time, without passing these (unless u r exempted). Not sure myself.

But my friends and I are now wondering who on earth marks these papers? if we hadn't had some cash for the re-mark (now refunded), then we would have had the wrong results, which would've affected the space-time continuum for ever and ever...........


Sorry.
