Follow-up

Letter from Jane Harvey and René Koglbauer folliing the meeting: follow up message to registered

“Whatever the final decision from Ofqual for the examinations in 2021, rest assured that ALL will be supporting the language community to find creative ways of making it as fair to learners and as stress-free as possible.”

Overview of meeting:

ALL encourages its members to engage actively in debating proposals put out to national consultation.

One of our core missions as an association is to keep members and the language community informed. Therefore, ALL ran an ALL Ofqual Consultation Webinar on Friday, 10th July at 8pm, hosted by René Koglbauer (ALL Chair) and Jane Harvey (ALL President).

During this webinar, Helen Myers (ALL) and David Blow (ASCL) presented on the background to this consultation, the wider issues and potential options for languages in these exceptional circumstances.

The presentation was followed by a discussion, initially focusing on questions and answers but then broadening out. As this is such an important matter for the language community, this event was open to members and non-members.
