Attention Access tutors. Don't miss our Access to HE Tutor Survey
All Access to HE tutors are encouraged to complete this Tutor Survey which relates specifically to the implementation of grading within Access to HE Diploma. The survey will be used by OCNLR in our annual AVA Self Evaluation Report to QAA. This report will contribute to QAAs evaluation of the first year of grading implementation and is an opportunity for tutors to have their say and to inform any future QAA review of grading within the Access to HE Diploma.
The survey end date has been extended and will now be available here until the 17th September.
If you have any queries regarding this survey please contact Marisa Castellini m.castellini@ocnlr.org.uk.
