Assistive Technology Lending Libraries: Empowering Vision Impaired Learners
Date: Tuesday 30 September
Time: 4pm
Join Dolphin and our expert speakers for an inspiring webinar that explores how the government-funded Assistive Technology Lending Libraries pilot project has the potential to transform education for SEND learners across the UK.
Hear directly from CENMAC – the project lead working with the UK government, who will spotlight the Assistive Technology Lending Libraries and share how the LEAs involved in the pilot can access specialist devices, training and support.
This new model has the potential to break down barriers and unlock opportunities for every student in the future. You’ll hear directly from:
- Mary Long, Deputy at CENMAC and QTVI lead on the Lending Libraries pilot, who will share insights into the programme and how schools can get involved.
- Iona Wilkinson, a recent college graduate and accessibility advocate, whose learning journey was powered by the right assistive technology.
- Simon Kitchen, Chief Commercial Officer at Dolphin, will showcase the SuperNova Education Kit – and its impact on students, teachers and SEND teams.
Whether you’re a QTVI, teacher, SENCO or education leader, this webinar will equip you with information on the direction SEND education could take in the future. It will also offer you practical strategies to deliver on your commitment to inclusive education and help vision impaired learners read, study, and thrive in mainstream classrooms.
