Tips to improve student inclusiveness

MARCH 2009

Blind and vision impaired students have another resource to help gain equality with sighted students.

Awesome Access, an initiative of the Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children (RIDBC), gives practical guidelines to teachers, school staff, parents and students.

RIDBC manager of children's services Jan North said the practical strategies and real-life examples would give encouragement and reassurance to school communities that true inclusion was achievable.

Awesome Access includes comprehensive information that explains basic inclusive practices as well as a DVD highlighting the day-to-day accessibility issues of three vision impaired students (preschool, primary and secondary) who attend mainstream schools.
