Can i muddy the waters slightly too? Is there any basis for any time constraint? I am thinking of the 33% extra time i used to receive as a visually impaired student.

Subject: 25% additional time
So...folks...
It would seem that from the responses I have had ...and I was merely curious in the first instance ... the general provision of 25% additional time has no basis other than precedent...no established base line etc...
So...
I'm left wondering...as indeed I think a good number of other colleagues are...on what basis are we supporting this accommodation?
The question I asked was prompted by me finding from US colleagues that their standard additional accommodation is +50%
Do we need to quiz ourselves more about this accommodation?
Best wishes
