The ability to allocate extra time for particular subjects for a candidate so this is displayed on their exam timetable

Seating plans should show when a candidate has Arrangement Notes

It would be useful if seating plans - in addition to stating when a candidate has, e.g., 25% extra time or a Word Processor - could show when a candidate has additional EAA notes, so that invigilators know that they need to check what these are. I...

Ability to Locate a Student or combination of Students free

It would be good if you could use the 'Locate Free Objects & Periods', 'By Object' to find when a student or combination of students are free in the same way you can for rooms and / or teachers.
