Dear Mr Sennett,
Your request was received on 16 August 2020 and I am dealing with it under the terms of the Freedom
of Information Act 2000 (‘the Act’).You asked:
Please provide the past exam papers, mark schemes and examiners’ reports in the Philosophy
Tripos for all syllabus options, for the Tripos exams in 1992, 1993 and 1994.
Insofar as it is held, this information is available for inspection for members of the public as visiting
readers in the University Library
(https://www.lib.cam.ac.uk/using-library). The University therefore
considers that the information that is held is reasonably accessible to you by other means and is
exempt under section 21(1) of the Act, which confers absolute exemption. In a spirit of advice and
assistance, past exam papers in Philosophy since 2007 are published at
https://www.phil.cam.ac.uk/curr-students/ugrads-exam-folder/IA-past-exam-papers (and related pages).
If you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation to your request and wish to make a
complaint or request an internal review of this decision, you should contact us quoting the reference
number above. The University would normally expect to receive your request for an internal review
within 40 working days of the date of this letter and reserves the right not to review a decision where
there has been undue delay in raising a complaint. If you are not content with the outcome of your
review, you may apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally, the
Information Commissioner cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the complaints
procedure provided by the University. The Information Commissioner may be contacted at: The
Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF
(https://ico.org.uk/).
Yours sincerely,
Zoe Allwood
