Exam Access Arrangements (EAA) are pre-examination adjustments for learners based on evidence of need and normal way of working. EAA allow learners with special educational needs (SEN), a disability or temporary injuries to access the assessment without changing the demands of the assessment.
Special consideration is a post-examination adjustment to a learner’s mark or grade to reflect temporary illness, temporary injury or some other event outside of the learner’s control at the time of the assessment, which has had, or is reasonably likely to have had, a material effect on a learner’s ability to take an assessment or demonstrate his or her normal level of attainment in an assessment.
The ABPI is committed to managing the ABPI examination to the highest standards of transparency and ethics. We expect all learners and ABPI staff and contractors to be honourable in all aspects concerning the attempting and management of the exam process.
