Modified papers for maths

Question to ¹ú²ú̽»¨‘The maths department have said they can get modified papers for maths through an awarding body- is this the best / only way of getting modified papers?”
Working group response
“Some awarding bodies use ¹ú²ú̽»¨accredited Language modifiers – BALMs. Whoever modifies exam papers must be aware of how to modify papers for Deaf people. ¹ú²ú̽»¨runs a training course to build up a body of well-qualified language modifiers (¹ú²ú̽»¨accredited Language modifiers – BALMs) who can work with Awarding Bodies to ensure equality of access for all.”
