2024-2025 JCQ guidance states:

'25% extra time would be awarded in a timed Art examination where a candidate has a formally diagnosed medical condition, a physical disability or a sensory impairment which has a substantial and adverse effect on their manual dexterity, their physical coordination. The candidate is demonstrably slower when, for example, mixing paints, painting and/or sketching. 

In rare and exceptional circumstances there may be candidates with substantially slower processing, poor memory skills, difficulties with sequencing and/or visual perceptual weaknesses which are impacting on their ability to perform the skill to their expected level when under timed conditions.'

2024-2025 JCQ guidance states:

'For those qualifications listed within the Deadlines section, an application must be processed using Access arrangements online.

The SENCo must complete Form 9 confirming the candidate’s disability. This will be a candidate with social, emotional and mental health needs or a candidate with a sensory impairment such as tinnitus or misophonia. Formal evidence must be available to confirm the candidate’s medical condition.

The centre must ensure that the candidate uses a device which cannot be connected to the internet. 

The music playlist must be checked to ensure an advantage is not conferred to the candidate.'
