AN OVERVIEW OF ACCESS ARRANGEMENTS  40 minutes

Have you ever wished that subject tutors, teachers and senior managers knew enough about Access Arrangements to fully support the Access Arrangements process in your centre?

In this 40 minute course Caroline Read gives a brief overview of Access Arrangements, including outlining the rationale for Access Arrangements for General Qualifications (GCSE, GCE, FS, KS etc), showing the arrangements which are available to students and outlining the responsibility to implement arrangements in lessons. The course is suitable for tutors, subject teachers, managers and support assistants- it would be ideal for a staff training day.

This online course is designed to be administered in one of two ways:
1. Ideally all the members of staff who you want to view the course will be able to access it together at the same time. For this we recommend that you use a digital projector and large screen with speakers to amplify the presentation.
2. Alternatively, individual staff members can access the course on a PC with headphones. Please note that due to the login requirements it is only possible for one person to be accessing the course at one time using this method.

You will have 10 consecutive days from the start date you choose to login to the webiste and view the course- you can run the course as many times as you want within this 10 day period, and there is not a maximum number of delegates for the total course fee of £35 (Early Bird rate)/ £45 (Standard rate).

All delegates must all be from your school or college, you can’t use the course to train staff from other centres.

We do not provide certificates for delegates attending this course.
