Exam Access Arrangements Assessment
A cognitive and academic ability investigation into the necessity for Exam Access Arrangements
Service Description
I am able to assess the need for Access Arrangements in examinations for students with Specific Learning Difficulties in Preparatory and Secondary school, as well as any HE or University/College education. An Exam Access Arrangements assessment takes approximately 2/3 hours and a carefully selected battery of tests are used to provide information about the students reading accuracy and speed, comprehension, spelling, handwriting and processing speed. Where applicable, tests of mathematical fluency can be administered for extra time in Math exams. The student’s underlying ability is also measured. This assessment is specifically for applying for access arrangements such as extra time, a reader or a scribe, and can be done as a follow up to a full Educational Assessment prior to examinations.
