Co-ordinator Update 3 February 2025

Assessment Arrangement requests - coloured paper

We’ve been advised that the cream (wheatear yellow) option of coloured paper is being discontinued. We’ve checked and can confirm that there is enough stock available to allow us to offer this colour option to learners, as part of an approved assessment arrangement request, for their exams in 2025.

We understand that learners requesting cream paper will need it as part of their normal way of working before the exams. If you need to source this colour option, you can do this through the usual ordering process. If you experience any issues sourcing this colour option for your learners for the 2025 exams, please email question.papers@sqa.org.uk.

We’ll review our offering of this colour option for 2026, and send you a revised and updated colour swatch in the autumn of session 2025-26.
