Hi Malcom,

I wondered if someone would ask. We are a school and sometimes
students with difficulties get a laptop to do exams. Since everyone
else is writing the answers the exam boards say the spell checker
must be disabled in such a way that it is not possible to use during
the exam so not to give these students an unfair advantage.

If this laptop has a local installation of LibreOffice, you can uninstall the dictionary on that laptop. You find it in Tools > Extension Manager. In addition, you can remove the source of the dictionary from the LO install folder, sub-folder share > extensions.

If the laptop uses a server installation of LibreOffice, then do not allow the network connection, but put a portable version of LO on the laptop and remove the dictionary in that portable version as described above.

If you can trust and control, that the student does not alter the configuration of LO, you can do this: Goto Tools > Options > Language Settings > Writing Aids. Uncheck all of Available language modules.

Kind regards
Regina
