- Attend all classes
- Respond promptly to any requests for information/documentary evidence to support enrolment
- Respond promptly to requests for information/meetings regarding examination access arrangements (special exam arrangements cannot be accommodated if they are not approved or if approval has expired)
Examination Access Arrangements – New Students
Students new to The Bedford College Group who require exam access arrangements must inform the additional learning support team at their local campus (if not already discussed at enrolment). Exam access arrangements are not automatically transferred from school to college and evidence will be required from previous schools.
