Exam Access Arrangements

Advice for Students, Parents & Carers

If you are a student joining us at DCG and you’ve had exam access arrangements (EAA) in the past, please see the ‘Exam Access Arrangements Leaflet’ on this page for information about how to submit evidence to us, and a table of deadlines of when you need to submit it by to ensure we are able to determine their suitability in time for future exams at DCG.

We hope the information on this page will be of help to students, as well as parents and carers, however, if you have any EAA related queries, please don’t hesitate to email the EAA Team using EAA@derby-college.ac.uk.
