Exam Access Arrangements (EAAs)
Exam access arrangements are assessed and awarded in line with JCQ (Joint Council for Qualifications) regulations.
An Educational Psychologist’s or medical report does not, on its own, automatically entitle a student to arrangements. Arrangements must reflect a student’s normal way of working and be supported further by appropriate evidence of need in accordance with JCQ requirements.
Assessments for EAAs (where appropriate) are carried out by qualified staff at college. Arrangements are approved where they are necessary to ensure fair access to examinations. For further information, please refer to the document below:
