Add an additional option to the Exams Manager Candidate Special Arrangements called 'Coloured Paper

Students may have Exam Special Arrangements which specify that they need coloured paper. It would be helpful to have this added as a check box option that can be viewed alongside the others as it does not currently appear.

Manually add exam duration in External Exams Manager

Some external assessments eg BTEC Level 3 Nationals external units do not have the date, time and duration on the exam board base data as they are centre timetabled (within a window). I can add the date and start time manually in the Programme Tim...
