      When I did that job I had a department exams chair ask for a death certificate for someone’s dad 🤦🏻‍♀️

      I had one rejected because her partner died but they weren’t married so “it could have been anyone’s death certificate”.

      Also, there was one of me in a university with a high level of non-traditional students with chaotic lives, and they were 10x as strict as Warwick, who allowed individual tutors to grant extensions

      Yep, my RG was very easy to deal with, tutors empathetic and able to grant extensions. The Post-92 was harsh and immovable, and when I complained was told “we’re trying to be more like RG”. By capping everyone at 40% for going through far worse circumstances?!

      Interesting thing was, they hired me because I’d worked in widening participation when studying at an RG, then ignored all my suggestions, believing the key to success was being excessively strict, not providing pastoral support.

      I must admit, my experience of extensions - as someone who has special educational needs and has asked for a lot of them - is that my institution has quite a low threshold for giving them. But I’m fortunate enough to have a GP who understands my difficulties, and who is always...

      It varies majorly, institution to institution. Warwick were very open, didn’t demand doctors notes, no one took the piss. UEL were awful, constantly complaining that single mothers hadn’t kept people on standby to look after their kids if they were hospitalised.

      Warwick’s sounds like a good approach! At my brother’s uni (UEA) everyone has a set number of extensions in the bank, to use as and when, which I think is great. Part of the issue for me is the embarrassment of having to go back to the GP again and again because the letter...

      ...they wrote 2 weeks ago is no longer valid for the panic/anxiety attack I had 2 days ago. The process of having to get all the evidence is invariably anxiety-inducing too

      I can imagine. I just had to email or meet my course tutor (they often offered to meet in a cafe so it was less stressful) so only had to deal with one person, no paperwork

          That sounds great - there’s certainly a more bureaucratic approach taken now. One of the most frustrating things about this current crisis is watching measures be introduced that I’ve always been told are impossible or out of the question. It’s very easy now, apparently

          It’s a volume management tactic then and an unenlightened approach
