Pupils at Castle Rushen High School were shocked to discover the book they’d been reading all year, was not on their syllabus.

The Year 11 students, completing their IGCSE had expected to be answering questions based on the 2017 syllabus book An Inspector Calls by JB Priestley.

Instead, the students were confronted with the Cambridge exam board 2018 questions, which included Inherit the Wind, A View From The Bridge, The Winslow Boy, Henry V and Macbeth.

They had no idea of the error until the moment they turned over their test papers.

Tuesday’s Isle of Man Examiner will have more details.
