Exemptions or Accreditation for prior learning (APL) - any student who has claimed exemption from part of the course due to achieving previous qualifications (such as allowed GSCEs), must have submitted evidence of these prior to being put forward for Moderation such that the tutor can sign to verify they have seen it. Note that you may also be required to produce these Certificates when you enrol on your Higher Education Course. You can see how exemptions are shown on an Access Certificate here - Page 1, Page 2.
