Help us understand more about private candidates

The cancellation of the summer exams has created particular challenges around private candidates, and we have received a number of queries from providers and students.

Posted Wed 20 May 2020

We intend to produce some good practice guidance on managing admissions for these candidates, to support you in assessing them.

This good practice will cover:

  • who these students are and their diverse circumstances
  • how providers currently support these students
  • specific considerations for 2020

Please complete our short survey, to help us understand current activity across the sector and promote good practice – it should take no more than five minutes to complete.
