Load work to the OCR Repository

The maximum file size is 600MB although larger files will take longer to upload, depending on your broadband capacity. We will accept a wide variety of file formats including all MS Office, compressed folders, PDF, jpg, and mp3.

When loading files, ensure each one is saved with the following format: 4 digit candidate number followed by an underscore, followed by any other text e.g. 1001_science_portfolio.

If not, the Repository won’t load them against the correct candidate and, if you add new files, they will overwrite existing ones.

Once you have selected your candidates you can load files using one of the methods detailed below.

Load multiple files against multiple candidates

To load files for multiple candidates you will need to have Adobe Flash installed on your computer. 

  1. Ensure all of your files are saved as described at the top of this page.
  2. Click the ‘Upload candidate files’ button in the ‘Candidates’ tab of the ‘Candidate Overview’ screen.
  3. Click ‘Browse’ and locate the files you wish to load.
  4. Once selected, click ‘Open’. Your selected files will show in the blue box on the ‘Upload candidate files’ page.
  5. When the upload is complete, the table will show you if the files have loaded successfully. If the file/s did not load, an error message will explain why.
  6. To go back to your list of candidates, simply click ‘Candidate Overview’ at the top left of the page, or click on the OCR logo.

Load multiple files against a specific candidate

  1. Ensure all your files are saved as described at the top of this page.
  2. Select a candidate name or number from the ‘Candidate Overview’ screen. This will allow you to view their ‘Candidate Details’.
  3. Click on ‘Upload files’.
  4. Click ‘Browse’ and locate the files you wish to load.
  5. Once selected, click ‘Open’. Your selected files will show in the blue box on the ‘Upload candidate files’ page. When the upload is complete, the table will show you if the files have loaded successfully. If the file/s did not load, an error message will explain why.
  6. To go back to your list of candidates, simply click ‘Candidate Overview’ at the top left of the page, or click on the OCR logo.

Load multiple administration files (non-candidate specific)

  1. Select the ‘Administration’ tab of the ‘Candidate Overview’ screen.
  2. Click on ‘Upload admin files’ to load admin files which are not candidate specific.
  3. Click ‘Browse’ and locate the files you wish to load. Once selected, click ‘Open’.
  4. Your selected files will show in the blue box on the ‘Upload admin files’ page.
  5. When the upload is complete, the table will show you if the files have loaded successfully. If the file/s did not load, an error message will explain why.
  6. To go back to your list of candidates, simply click ‘Candidate Overview’ at the top left of the page, or click on the OCR logo.

Please ensure you load the correct files to the Repository. If the wrong files are loaded this may delay moderation.
