25% extra time
Some pupils with SEND are entitled to 25% extra time when they complete their tests. If the senior school agrees with the documentation request, the 25% extra time will be automatically calculated and added to the test time.
Other adjustments

- A reader for the tests
- Supervised rest breaks
- A separate room
You will need to ensure you can make these other adjustments.
A senior school can appeal any requests for access arrangements, if their appeal is successful the applicant profile will be updated. You should review the applicant profile of any pupils with SEND prior to testing.
