Examination arrangements
Following your individual needs assessment interview, we will confirm what reasonable examination arrangements are required and discuss these arrangements with you and your lecturer. Alternative examination arrangements are put in place to ensure that you are not unduly disadvantaged by your impairment.
Support is designed to maximise your capacity to become an independent learner whilst studying at the University. Remember that the key to successful study is to plan ahead, check out the environment and resources, ask for assistance and do so at the earliest opportunity.

What support is available?
Here are some examples of alternative examination arrangements that students with impairments use at the University:- Additional time
- A reader/writer (sometimes call a scribe or amanuensis)
- Examination papers in enlarged print
- Separate distraction free rooms
- The use of a word processor
Examination and tests during the semester
To get your examination support confirmed you must:- Fully complete an “Exam Arrangements Application Form” for each examination, where agreed support is required, and return it to Disability Student Support.
- Ensure the forms are received by us no later than 2 weeks before the examination date
- Receive notification from us that your arrangements have been confirmed
It is essential that the forms are given to us without delay. Your examinations and test dates and times can be found in your programme handbook at the beginning of each semester. Failure to follow this process means that we will not guarantee that your alternative examination arrangement will be provided in time for your examination.
