Schools should allow sufficient time before these deadlines for assessment, evidence gathering, review of normal way of working and internal processing.
For individual candidates requiring assessment evidence.
Separate information for private candidates and examination centres.
For schools with appropriate systems/platforms for remote assessment.
Dedicated information for international schools delivering UK qualifications and working with UK awarding-body requirements.
For schools, private candidates, and international institutions, I provide remote assessments to determine eligibility for access arrangements. Schools must have access to an approved online assessment platform to facilitate testing. I have supported schools remotely using data from platforms such as EXACT and relevant school-provided information, including a student’s normal way of working, EHCPs, and teacher observations.
✔ Form 8 & Form 9 Completion – Providing the necessary documentation for JCQ compliance.
✔ Online Platform Data Analysis – Using data from school assessment platforms to determine eligibility for accommodations.
✔ Flexible Scheduling – Allowing schools and private candidates to book assessments as needed.
✔ Secure File Sharing – Using OneDrive or an existing school platform to maintain data security and confidentiality.
This service is ideal for schools that lack in-house assessors and for private candidates needing accommodations for exam centres.
Independent Access Arrangements Assessment
Qualified independent assessor supporting schools, colleges and examination centres with standardised assessment for JCQ Access Arrangements.
For schools that prefer in-person testing or do not have access to remote assessment platforms, I offer on-site visits to conduct drop-in assessments for students needing exam accommodations.
✔ Half-Day & Full-Day Assessment Visits – Completing multiple assessments in one session.
✔ Flexible Booking – Schools can schedule assessments as needed, avoiding last-minute delays.
✔ Comprehensive Testing – Assessing reading, writing, and processing difficulties for access arrangements.
✔ Immediate Feedback – Providing quick turnaround times to meet JCQ deadlines.
This service is ideal for schools struggling to complete assessments on time and needing an external specialist to support their SEN teams.
International schools face unique challenges when arranging exam accommodations, particularly when following UK-based JCQ regulations. Schools often lack access to qualified UK-trained assessors and need secure, reliable testing solutions to ensure their students receive the necessary support.
At V.A.S.E.N, I offer:
✔ Remote Testing for Access Arrangements – Using approved online platforms to assess students anywhere in the world.
✔ Secure File Submission – Ensuring all documentation is handled via encrypted file-sharing platforms like OneDrive.
✔ In-Person Testing (By Arrangement) – Offering on-site assessments for international schools needing direct support.
By working with V.A.S.E.N, international schools can ensure compliance with UK awarding body regulations while providing seamless access arrangements for their students.
