Some noise in the exam room is normal given the number of students sitting an exam. This may include students arriving late/leaving early and there is a need for invigilators to collect materials. 

There may also be minor noise from outside the exam room for short periods during an exam.

More serious disturbances would be investigated by the invigilator(s) to ensure that these are resolved as quickly as possible and, where appropriate, the Exams Office would be informed. 

Please note, there are no fire alarm tests during the exam period. If you hear the fire alarm, please remain calm and follow the instructions given by the invigilator.
