Exam access arrangements

I provide flexible exam access arrangement assessments for schools, colleges and individual students, both online and in person.

I can work with:

  • schools and colleges needing assessments for individual students or cohorts

  • families whose school or college has agreed that an independent assessment would be helpful

  • GCSE and A level students, including those who need an assessment urgently

  • adults sitting professional body examinations.

I have extensive experience working with schools, including private schools where families may prefer assessments to take place outside school hours, and regularly offer these services to international schools.

For schools and colleges

I offer a flexible service designed around the needs of your setting, whether you have 1 student to assess or a large cohort.

Assessments can be carried out online or in person, and I'm happy to work with schools on an ongoing or one-off basis.

I understand how important turnaround times can be, particularly as exam deadlines approach. JCQ form 8s are returned within 48 hours of the assessment, provided I have received all the necessary information from the school or college.

Please contact me if you'd like to discuss your requirements, including assessments for multiple students.

For families

If you're concerned that your child may need exam access arrangements, the first step is to speak with their school or college.

Exam access arrangements must reflect a student's normal way of working and the education provider must be involved in the process. If the school or college agrees that an independent assessment is appropriate, I can work with them to carry this out.

This can be particularly helpful for families looking for a flexible appointment outside school hours or where an assessment is needed very quickly.

Before booking, I'll need confirmation that the school or college is happy to work with me and provided I've received all the necessary information.

For adults sitting professional and other exams

I also assess adults who need evidence for exam access arrangements for professional exams or university.

Requirements vary between examining bodies so please check what evidence your organisation requires before booking. I'm happy to discuss whether the assessment I provide is likely to meet those requirements.

Need an assessment urgently?

I can often offer appointments at short notice. Please get in touch to discuss availability.
