[senco-forum] Re: Access Arrangements- IGCSE

Dear Angela,

You will find the Cambridge IGCSE on 
http://www.cie.org.uk/CIE/WebSite/home.jsp If you go to contact and 
scroll down to the end of the page you will find a phone no - ask for 
Special Arrangements. There is no information on the website about it 
and they had to email the regulations to me. The regulations are very 
different to those of GCSE. Sorry, I don't know anything about Edexcel - 
I thought only Cambridge did IGCSE. Phone Edexcel to find out the 
information using contact phone nos on their website. Specialist 
Teachers who do Special Arrangements for CIE (Cambridge) have to be put 
on their data base and they can only assess for extra time and the use 
of a word processor. Everything else has to be done by an EP. Also the 
deadlines dates for anything other than June exams are early - months 
before those for GCSE. (If I remember correctly, the November exams 
deadline is mid-August, for example).

Regards,
Janet
