Tests continue to be available to hire and test papers to buy – for pick up/drop off and SASC advice on administration.
Assessment tests, books on teaching methods, and learning difficulties, and periodicals, can be inspected or may be borrowed by contacting PATOSSbasingstoke@hotmail.com to arrange collection/return at other times.
If you wish to familiarise yourself with procedures or to use the tests they may be hired out at the rates below. Tests marked CL2R can be borrowed only by professionals qualified in or being trained for SpLD related work (you need initially to show a tutor’s letter or proof of qualification – AMBDA, OCR etc.).
Tests marked CL3 may be borrowed by teachers and specialist TAs or trainees.
