Access Arrangement E-Toolkit 2025/2026

Welcome to the Access Arrangements E-Toolkit

Confidence, Clarity & Compliance

Managing access arrangements correctly is critical for ensuring fairness, meeting regulations, and supporting every learner’s needs. Our Access Arrangements E-Toolkit is designed to equip exams officers, SENCo teams, and support staff with the knowledge, skills, and tools to get it right – every time.

Through four concise, bite-sized modules, you will:

• Understand the regulations and how to apply them effectively

• Develop and embed best practice in your centre

• Streamline your processes for accuracy and efficiency

• Access ready-to-use templates, checklists, and reference materials

The course is flexible and self-paced, allowing you to learn at a time that suits you, and it concludes with an e-certificate to recognise your achievement.

Whether you are new to access arrangements or seeking to refresh and refine your approach, this toolkit will give you the confidence to work to the highest standards while saving valuable time.

Support compliance. Strengthen processes. Ensure fairness for every learner.

This course is made up of four bite-sized modules designed to help you feel confident and clear about access arrangements processes. You will find step-by-step guidance, best practice tips, and downloadable materials to support your work.

Instructions: It is important to carefully follow the learning journey and mark each activity as complete as you progress through the program. This ensures that you can keep track of your progress and have a clear overview of the activities you have completed. By marking activities as complete, you can easily identify the remaining tasks and monitor your overall advancement in the program. Take the time to review each activity thoroughly before marking it as complete to ensure that you have fulfilled all the requirements and gained the intended knowledge or skills.

Videos in This Course

Throughout this course, you will find short videos designed to support and enhance your learning. These videos are an important part of the programme as they:

• Bring key concepts to life with clear explanations and examples.
• Break down complex processes into manageable steps.
• Provide a different way of learning, helping you to absorb and retain information more effectively.
• Reinforce what you have read in the course materials and show how it applies in practice.

We strongly recommend that you watch each video in full and, if needed, revisit them as you progress through the course. Engaging with the videos will help embed your understanding and ensure that you are confident in applying what you have learned when carrying out your role as an exams officer.

They are designed to be short, practical, and easy to follow  – so do not skip them. Watching the videos will save you time in the long run and give you extra confidence as you put your learning into practice.
