Exam Access Arrangements Assessments that work in practice
Assessments that reflect normal way of working and stand up to scrutiny not just tick a box.
Exam access arrangements aren’t about giving an advantage.
That only works when support reflects their normal way of working.
I carry out targeted assessments that combine formal testing with existing centre evidence — ensuring recommendations are appropriate, practical and fully aligned with JCQ requirements.
This isn’t about generating scores and hoping they fit.
It’s about linking assessment outcomes clearly to how the learner works day to day.
That means:
• Assessments that align with existing centre evidence
• Clear links between findings and recommendations
• No over-reliance on test scores alone
• No generic or unsupported arrangements
Everything is structured so it is clear, justified and inspection-ready.
Assessments can be delivered both face to face in schools and online for FE colleges.
For schools, this allows for a straightforward, on-site assessment process that fits within the school day.
For FE colleges, online delivery provides a scalable solution — increasing assessment capacity without placing additional pressure on internal staff.
This frees up specialist teachers and support staff to focus on working directly with students, rather than being tied up in assessment delivery.
• Targeted assessment aligned to JCQ requirements
• Clear, structured recommendations with justification
• Documentation that supports internal and external review
• A consistent and scalable approach to assessment delivery
To ensure learners receive the support they need to access exams fairly.
And to support schools and colleges in managing demand efficiently without overloading internal teams.
