Unfortunately I fear this is what is happening to the place I'm currently working. Devices being thrown in, where the leaders of this project are all very hands off and instead of defining best practice and conducting thorough training and review, they let the teachers all decide how it best works for them. It's an absolute farce and will be a colossal waste of money and time precisely because it's not bee built from the curriculum up. We've got all the tech ready but it will be use adoption and teaching where it will fall down because this has not been taken seriously enough by those leading the project.

As I understand it by the JCQ guidelines, students should only be getting scribes/readers if they have it during the course of their normal school tuition.

We recently took on a secondary school, building from the 50's and it doesn't look like it's been kept up at all. Original fittings, furniture, built-in cupboards i classrooms, science desks in science block... Only reason I can think of is a lot of the staff have been there for years and years, all got multiple titles, multiple TLRs and at the top fo the pay scale.. school can't afford to do anythign but pay the staff. OH and the IT was terrible till we injected loads of money

Lucky! One of the schools I worked at had these installed summer '24. They don't charge staff, but the company whose chargers they are do! (Not part of the school's electricity supply, you see...)

Massive safeguarding issue - and most of these services will have minimum ages, which is commonly 13 or 16 years of age.

Was going to say if they're only willing to offer this salary, why don't they just advertise for an apprentice and take advantage of the apprenticeship levy.

100% this. I remember getting told off a lot for working things out "the wrong way" but still coming to the same answer. It was never a "this is why we do it this way" just a "this is wrong, do it the way i showed you".
