Re your food for thought
How could recommendations that are all contentious with the strong
chance that they would be rejected by the funding body get past your
Centres Quality Assurance processes?
Food for thought indeed.

Many thanks for all your comments. From the responses I've received I
seem to have split opinion. From experience this is not unusual as
there seem to be a number of grey areas where arguments that can be put
for and against depending on your perspective. Would like to draw a
line under this one now but would like to leave you with one thought.
At some point I can envisage carrying out an assessment for a student
which as been sanctioned by the funding body, if my recommendations are
all contentious then potentially the student could have all support
denied by the funding body unyet an assessment has been carried out and
needs to be paid for.
In other words the student gets no support and the DSA is spent purely
on admin and bureaucracy.
Food for thought!!
