Stage 2 is in Liverpool this week. Starting from tomorrow. It may well be on next week too depending on the size of the courses.

I was informed today that the number for those who passed Stage 1 at TPE enhanced level is 36.

There are 3 people on each course this week. 6 from next week.

Good luck to those either waiting to hear still or those who have booked stage 2.

How do you know this information mate? And what do you mean enhanced level exactly? Ta

Just what I was told today and the enhanced level is the score benchmark for First TPE. Two scoring levels....mandatory and enhanced.

I still haven't heard either way. Can't work out why it would take so long if people have failed and it's leaving it very late to arrange things if it's a pass?!

Yeah had an email this afternoon.

Contact the OPC. You may have past it at mandatory level and not the enhanced that TPE require. Worth a shot.

Thankyou :) did it yesterday at deutsche bahn in Doncaster. I was surprised I did it all in one day too. We were told at the start of the day we would be sitting everything that day. Was there from 8am to 6pm!

Just had my call back from the tests and I got everything at the enhanced TPE pass rate other than the Te-OCC which I still passed at the industry pass rate. Gutted I just missed it but at least I haven't used up one of my strikes!

If you havnt heard just keep your fingers crossed, I received a call today from the examiner reference my request for my actual results. Guess you could call it good news, I never failed any of the tests, just didn't hit the enhanced rate for 2 of the 5 tests. Does anyone know what scoring mark Northern rail use?
Cheers

Well done for passing the tests, at least a driving career isn't over. I believe Northern use the mandatory pass mark. I do know a training instructor for Northern as I too would look there if I don't make the enhanced pass mark for TPE. Good luck with your search.
