[senco-forum] access arrangements you can't meet ????

Good point -
We may shortly be at this position -
Due to 
A - scribes / readers - including emergency ones
B - all teachers are invigilators
C - class cover 

Small school with small number of teachers -

Q - what innovative approaches are others using e.g.
Use of Governors ?
Use of Parents ?
Paid scribes / readers ?

Tks

We've been fully stretched this year - very small department - with SATS
- GCSEs will be tricky too to find someone to scribe/read etc.
Now, I wonder what is the position if the access arrangement has been
granted by the Exam Board but the school doesn't meet the need and the
paper isn't read/scribed etc ?
Next year will be o.k. (probably) but the year after that and subsequent
years I think there will be more and more students needing help and my
department is down to me and a part time support teacher and two full
time T.A.s plus another for just 6 hrs. That's due to the new funding
arrangements in Hertfordshire.
Anyway, what would happen - anyone know ?
