Yes. You can make reasonable adjustments for students according to their individual circumstances and usual access arrangements for class learning and assessments. For example, extra time provision, use of computers or reader software etc. There are also some adjustments you can make for students with medical or mental health needs such as anxiety or mutism, that may make certain elements of the assessment such as the pitches, challenging for students. Our aim would always be to support students to access the assessment criteria as best as they can.
You can find more information about adjustments for candidates with disabilities and learning difficulties on the JCQ access arrangements document.
If you would like to discuss the best way to support students in specific tasks, please contact us at support@ocr.org.uk and a member of our Subject or Special Requirements team would be happy to discuss individual cases with you.
