Extenuating Circumstances are circumstances which:

• impair your examination performance prevent you from attending examinations
or other types of assessment, or

• prevent you from submitting coursework or other assessed work by the
scheduled deadline date, or within 24 hours of the deadline date

Such circumstances rarely occur and would normally be:

• unforeseeable – in that you could have no prior knowledge of the event
concerned, and

• unpreventable – in that you could do nothing reasonably in your power to
prevent such an event, and

• expected to have a serious impact on performance
