Zane Davidson who is my TAE qualified supervising teacher trialed this assessment tool. He completed the tool as if
he was a student (student perspective) and also completed the quality review check.
Zane felt that the collection instrument was well set out and assisted the RPL student well.
He felt that some questions on the verbal test could be altered to improve the readability of these.
