[senco-forum] access arrangements

Does everyone know that we NOW also have to inform the  exam boards about
pupils we are going to give extra time for when the entries are made? i.e.
also the end of September? This can be done on line...a nice man from the
Assessment agency came and showed me how on Friday!

Up to her eyes in doing assessments...and the Learning Support time table as
well!!!!! (and I thought July was my busiest time of year)

Hello everyone

  Just a thought
  In these days of Individual Pupil Numbers, why do we need to apply for
access arrangements at all?  The DfES collects data on pupils with SEN.  Why
can't it be used to save us having to apply?

  Who has been filling in forms since 09-30 and it is now 13-48.  And we are
a small school with 120 in each of years 10 and 11.
