62.This section applies when Qualifications Scotland is publishing a document under this Part of the Act. It requires Qualifications Scotland to have regard to the importance of communicating in an inclusive way that best meets the needs of children and young people, persons with educational support needs (as defined in section 63(1)), users of British Sign Language, users of Gaelic, users of Scots and other users of Qualifications Scotland’s services. For example, this section would require Qualifications Scotland to consider publishing the learner charter in an accessible format (including for users of British Sign Language) and translating it into Gaelic and Scots.
