which they should already have contacted
I'm assuming here that the partially obliterated word is "contactarse"; thus, it is being said that each team of investigators should have already contacted the schools.
Suerte.

With "deber" being used here rather than "poder", the English should have "should" rather than "might" in the translation. :-)
Suerte.

Le subí el registro pero creo que la idea es esta. Está explicando un procedimiento, no me parece fluído traducirlo en pasado cuando la primera parte está en presente.
Espero que te de pie para una mejor traducción.

which they should by then have gained access to
The context is specifically one of *research*. Gaining access to an environment, particularly when ethnographic research is involved (and it is often the case in Education), is a crucial stage of the process which ensures the feasibility that the study will, in fact, get completed eventually. I'd opt for 'access' for the sake of explicitness in this case.
