The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations. They have in place criteria for reasonable accommodation including an independent appeals system. All applications for reasonable accommodations are considered in light of a published Framework of Principles as set out by the Expert Advisory Group on examinations.
The State Examinations Commission provides a range of measures to facilitate candidates with particular needs. These include the provision of readers and scribes, the production of modified papers; brailed and enlarged papers; use of tape recorders and personal computers; and exemption of waivers in respect of particular components. Some of these measures require the establishment of special examination centres. In view of this I have forwarded your query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to you.
