The assessment consists of
• written tasks supported by a portfolio of documentary evidence submitted to the assessor prior to the visit
• school-based visit carried out by an external independent assessor provided by the Regional Provider of Assessment (RPA)
Sheffield Hallam works in partnership with the RPA for the north of England to provide HLTA assessments in South Yorkshire and in collaboration with the RPA for the East Midlands, Northampton University.
To maintain the national integrity and consistency of the HLTA status, the HLTA National Assessment Partnership will apply a national assessment process, subject to moderation and quality assurance, to the status awarded by each Regional Provider of Assessment (RPA). This ensures that each HLTA status is recognised by all RPAs within the partnership.
