This is a summary of the regulations regarding Access Arrangements from "Regulations and Guidance Relating to Candidates who are Eligible for Adjustments in Examinations" which is published annually by JCQ. These regulations comply with the DDA, 1995 duty to cover general qualifications as from 1 September 2007. They include new responsibilities for Heads of Centre and will be of interest to Heads of Centre, examinations officers and SENCos in secondary schools and colleges.
CSF3800 Specialist Teacher Register for Exam Access Arrangements
In order to help schools organise Access Arrangements for GCE, VCE, GCSE, Entry Level and Key Skills, CSF have published a register of specialist teachers who are able to assess students and complete the relevant section of JCQ/AA/LD Form 8.
This register is a list of teachers who have a qualification previously required for assessing for Access Arrangements and have asked for their names to be included. Please note that the teachers have not shown evidence of their specialist qualification or CRB checks and therefore checking is the responsibility of the school.
Copies have been sent to all secondary school SENCos. Further copies can downloaded from this site.
