Exam adjustments may include:
- additional time
- room adjustments
- use of a computer
- adjustments to the format of exam papers
- access to support workers (scribes or readers)
- advisement to markers not to penalise errors in spelling, punctuation, untidy handwriting or clumsiness of English expression
Check the application deadlines for requesting alternative exam arrangements.
To make reasonable adjustments, we do require supporting documentation. Follow this link to our Student Documentation Policy for Reasonable Adjustments.
Once reasonable adjustments are identified, a support plan is created for you. This plan details all the adjustments that we will support you with, and it is held with your student record so we can give you the support you require. As detailed in our Privacy Statement, we maintain confidentiality and we only share the information with staff that need to know for teaching or key administrative processes, such as exams.
If you have not met a member of the Disability Support Team to discuss your Support Plan, or there are additional adjustments you would like to discuss, pease book an appointment with us by logging into .
