Subject: Re New LD guidelines (taping answers)
From: "Patricia Reifen" <patriciareifen@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Hi everyone,
It has been suggested that schools appeal decisions regarding students
who
cannot use two tapes. (see quote below). Perhaps therefore, the
ministry will also now be able to find payment for those who have to
"become
tapes". You should know that, unless this has been changed too, those
who
offer to read to a student instead of the student using a tape are not
paid.
Only teachers who read for those tested orally can fill in a payment
form.
Enjoy life,
Patricia
