Terms and Conditions

Third party copyright restrictions

Many question papers contain material that is sourced from third-parties, such as photographs; extracts and diagrams from newspapers; books and magazines. Where this is the case, OCR endeavours to obtain full copyright clearance for their use. However, if this has not been possible some papers may not be available online or will have specific content removed.

Conditions for centres

Copyright restrictions apply to the use of the papers by centres - they may be downloaded and printed for internal purposes within centres for examination preparation and private study. Centres may also save electronic versions of past papers on an internal intranet site of internal virtual learning environment. Centres do not need to apply for copyright clearance to do this.

However, centres wishing to reproduce past papers (or any other OCR materials) onto an externally facing Internet site or wishing to publish them in hard copy externally, must apply for permission in writing from OCR.

Publishers must also apply in writing for permission to reproduce any OCR materials.
