Who can apply for Reasonable Adjustments?

Any student with a permanent or temporary disability, medical condition, impairment, or specific circumstances that have a significant, functional impact on their ability to sit exams for Level 3 and 4 courses under standard conditions. Students with a diagnosed learning disability, condition or impairment (eg. physical, sensory, cognitive, or mental health conditions) are encouraged to speak to Dayna or their teacher asap.

Adjustments to the exam conditions are determined on a case-by-case basis and may include, but are not limited to:
