Thanks for your help everyone. I imagine the case I'm dealing with is very
unusual then... The student has transferred from another University to my
own institution. His LEA have requested that he has a top-up assessment
here. Do I charge, or should it be a freebie? I'm a bit reluctant to ask the
LEA directly, as it would be logical for them to say it should be free!

In my experience, the Assessment Centre should do a free top-up
assessment if the student's needs have changed because of their
disability.
If she student has changed course and/or institution though, this may
constitute an "new" assessment to be done from scratch - but this would
require the LEA to pay again..

Subject: Top-up DSA assessments
I would be interested to know how much Access Centres charge for a
top-up
assessment. Do Centres perform top-up assessments for students who were
originally assessed elsewhere, or just for their own students?
Also, do LEAs generally require top-up assessments to be as detailed as
the
original report?
Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.
