[senco-forum] Staffing Access Arrangements -readers

Gosh, that sounds so blindingly simple and obvious that I am surprised that it's permitted...

Who provides the electronic version of the exam paper?

reader.

The overhead in setting this up is pretty much the same if there are 15
candidates or only one.  We expect to be providing this for 5 candidates
simultaneously on 5 March; the staffing overhead is just one invigilator in
the room with all the networked machines.  Each candidate works
independently using headphones for the "reader", and writes in the paper
version of the question/answer book.

Is anybody else doing this?  would be interested to swap notes if so.
