Our team of Resource Developers are dedicated to adapting learning materials and exams and creating bespoke accessible high-tech and low-tech learning and communication resources.
Every CandLE student has a dedicated Resource Developer who will learn the students access needs to ensure all of their learning is made accessible to them. Our team are trained in a number of AT platforms and work alongside the teaching staff to implement the most appropriate solutions.
“I do my work like everyone else. I only need my lessons to be adapted for me to use. I do English, maths, history, science, catering, PE and music club.”
