Introduction  \n1.1 Scope and purpose  \nKaplan SQE Limited (Kaplan SQE) has been appointed by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (“SRA”) as the sole provider of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (“the Assessment”) and the End Point Assessment Organisation (“EPAO”) for Solicitor Apprentices. Kaplan SQE handles appeals in accordance with this Policy as required by the SRA.  \nThis Policy sets out the procedures to be followed in cases where a candidate wishes to appeal against a decision of the Assessment Board.  \n1.2 Fairness  \nWe are committed to ensuring that this Policy is fair and transparent and is operated in a manner which:  \n● treats all candidates equally and fairly in the consideration of their claims  \n● gives reasons for our actions taken and the decision we make  \n● is free from bias  \n● has reasonable timescales for both submissions to and responses from us.  \n1.3 Confidentiality  \nInformation provided by candidates under these procedures will be treated confidentially and only shared with those persons necessary to consider their claim.  \n1.4 Timescales  \nWe consider that candidates will normally be able to meet the time limits in communicating with us. Where there are circumstances which mean a candidate cannot reasonably meet such time limits they must communicate this to us at the earliest opportunity.  \n1.5 Candidates with a disability  \nWhere a candidate indicates that they have a disability, information will be made available to them in appropriate formats and reasonable adjustments will be made to proceedings to accommodate their needs.  \n1.6 Review of this Policy  \nThis Policy will be monitored by Kaplan SQE and any necessary amendments will be made and implemented at the earliest opportunity. As a minimum, Kaplan SQE will review this and all associated policies on an annual basis as part of its ongoing quality assurance procedures.  \n2. Definitions  \nMitigating circumstances:  \na) A mistake or irregularity in the administration or conduct of the assessment; or  \nb) Evidence of bias in the conduct of the assessment; or  \nc) Subject to the Fit to Sit Policy and SQE Assessment Regulations acandidate's illness or other personal circumstances beyond his/her reasonable control  \nwhich materially and adversely affects a candidate's marks or performance in the assessment.  \n3. Request for clarification of result  \n3.1 A candidate may wish to raise a query about the decision of the Assessment Board and seek early clarification of their result. In these circumstances the candidate should first raise the issue by email to us within 7 working days of being informed of the exam result.  \n3.2 In the event that the candidate remains dissatisfied and considers they have grounds for an appeal they may lodge a first stage appeal within 10 working days from the date of the response from Kaplan SQE to the clarification of result.  \n4. Request for a clerical check  \n4.1 A candidate may request a clerical check for errors in the calculation or collation of marks.  \n4.2 Requests must be submitted on the Request for a Clerical Check Form within  \n15 working days of the notification of the result to which the request relates.  \n4.3 A fee of £100 will be charged for a clerical check. This fee will be refunded if an error is found.  \n4.4 Where a request for a clerical check is made and the candidate remains dissatisfied and considers they have grounds for an appeal they may lodge a first stage appeal within 10 working days of receiving the result of the clerical check.  \n5. Appeals  \n5.1 This Policy provides for a formal appeals process with two stages: a first stage appeal and a final appeal.  \n5.2 Where a candidate submits an appeal which also contains a complaint, we will suspend consideration of the appeal until the complaint has been investigated according to the SQE Complaints Policy. The appeal process will continue once the complaints proce","cbCaishiuMsMYFYk","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaishiuMsMYFYk","pdf",155763,"English","# Introduction\n## Scope and purpose\n## Fairness\n## Confidentiality\n## Timescales\n## Candidates with a disability\n## Review of this Policy\n# Definitions\n# Request for clarification of result\n# Request for a clerical check\n# Appeals\n## First stage appeal","[{\"question\":\"How can a candidate request clarification of their SQE result?\",\"answer\":\"A candidate should email Kaplan SQE within 7 working days of being informed of the exam result to raise a query and seek early clarification.\"},{\"question\":\"What is a clerical check and when must requests be submitted?\",\"answer\":\"A clerical check addresses errors in the calculation or collation of marks.
