    Please refer to this post https://opentuition.com/topic/remote-invigilation-march-2021-acca-recommendations – the recommendation for “session” CBE (as opposed to “ondemand”) is 17 inches.

    You will see some have commented that they managed wit less than 17 inches for applied skills exams.

    Bottom line is that you will not be prevented from using a smaller screen but then if you have problems/can’t manage the real exam with it, you cannot then claim any mitigation.

    As students are expected to have worked through specimen/practice exams (available in the CBE platform https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/exam-support-resources/professional-exams-study-resources/cbe-platform-support.html they should be confident that their equipment is suitable.

    @afmp4 – it is not a “system” requirement but is covered here, for example, https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/help/remote.html (What computer/laptop equipment am I allowed to use and what can I have on my desk?)

    You may also find the “one page summary guide” helpful for links to other resouces
