On 1 November 2021, Ofqual published its Consultation on designing and developing accessible assessments, inviting feedback on draft provision for assessments which is intended to ensure that all learners, including those with disabilities, are able to access assessments without unnecessary obstacles. The consultation process started on 1 November 2021 at 09:30, and will close on 24 January 2022 at 23:45.

In this webinar, Michael Chiles, Principal examiner, curriculum development expert, school leader & author of The CRAFT of Assessment, will provide an in-depth review of the principles of accessible assessments, including exams, established in Ofqual’s draft guidance, highlight the implications for staff and pupils and the importance of school’s participation in the consultation process.
