In this Cambridge OCR–sponsored webinar, our expert panellists will explore how to make assessments more accessible for every student. They’ll look at both low‑stakes classroom assessments and high‑stakes external assessments, focusing on how to reduce barriers for disadvantaged or vulnerable students and those with SEND. The discussion will cover practical ways to help all students show their thinking, demonstrate their learning and be fairly rewarded for their achievements.
