Information on assessment delivery disruptions

Jan 26, 2026

We have published information on our approach when there is an issue that prevents an assessment day from starting or being completed.

We plan extensively and work hard to ensure every assessment runs smoothly. While the vast majority of SQE candidates complete their assessments without interruption, we recognise that issues can sometimes arise.

The new webpage sets out what you can expect from us if you are affected by such an event, including answers to frequently asked questions.
