Dear all,
I was wondering if any HEI's with medical schools would be able to give us any information about any reasonable adjustments to examination assessments for students with health conditions or disabilities that they may have made (not SpLD's).
Our concerns are particularly around adjustments over and above 25% extra time, for example rest breaks or room on own and the medical schools perception of fitness to practice issues surrounding any adjustments that may have been requested as a result of a particular need.
Any comments would be very useful, thank you very much for your help.
Kind Regards
Alison

If the content of this email concerns one or more disabled students,
please bear in mind that the information it contains may be confidential
to those individuals, and that medical history information in particular
may be very sensitive. It is disclosed for one purpose: to facilitate
the University's support of that student. If you need to pass the
information to colleagues within the University, please check with the
Disability Service first. Recommendations made for the support of a
student are unlikely to be confidential, but the reasons for these
recommendations may be so.
