Thanks Sally -----Original Message----- From: The FE Exams Network mailing list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Sara Galloway Sent: 21 November 2012 15:25 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Oral Language Modifier Hello All Has anyone organised for any of their students to use a Modifier in an exam? If so what did you do?? One of my specialist assessors recently attended the PATOSS training event, and our friend Nick Lait was in attendance. If a student is assessed to have good reading abilities and their speed of writing is fine, but they cannot understand the text, we can apply for a Modifier. When questioned about this she was told that a member of staff must attend a course(?) PATOSS apparently offer one, so that they can act as a modifier. Those in attendance was also told that the JCQ inspections for access arrangements will be starting up again from January. So sorry if I've spoiled your Wednesday afternoon!
