If we pick 2 dates and use the same agenda, then people can choose the most convenient date and/or location.

Can I ask that we also discuss issues relating to notetakers etc not just tutors? thanks Faye Langston Disabilities Co-ordinator Coventry University [log in to unmask] From: List for Support Worker Co ordinators for Disability Support in HE [ mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Peter Quinn Sent: 03 June 2009 16:05 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Date for Meeting of Coordinators Dear All, I agree with Fiona's suggestion on content and also that any meeting should be 'solution focused'. August is usually a bad time given peoples holidays. I'd therefore suggest later in July. Would September be too late? Please let me have your view on timings. I can promise a nice space for our discussions, I just need your guidance on time.

I feel there is much value in sharing best practice and so not reinventing the wheel ! I also think the sessions would be best focussed on how to ensure best practice for us all to provide best service to our students. For example cancellation policies, what does your ILP look like Do you submit these to funding bodies, if so how and when Do you provide support prior to AoN, based on acceptable evidence Do you record what is undertaken in individual sessions, if so how How do you deal with students who want to access support on a irregular basis I do not want to be involved in any session that focusses on banging the drum against SLC. Any thoughts on the timing of these events?
