Sandra Greatorex “I am the manager of the West Sussex Sensory Support Team. I joined the Sensory Support Team in 2003 as a trainee Teacher for Vision Impairment (QTVI). During this time, I developed a particular interest in supporting children and young people with multi-sensory impairment, which led me to qualify as a Teacher of Multi-Sensory Impairment (QTMSI) in 2015.
Throughout my time with West Sussex, I have developed knowledge and expertise in the use of assistive technology to support access to learning and independence. This has been a key aspect of my work both as a QTVI and QTMSI, as well as in supporting children and young people with more complex needs.”
