Free Assistive Technology Resources

In January, nasen, working in partnership with Microlink, launched a DfE funded pilot project that aims to grow and develop the use of assistive technology.

Twenty-four secondary schools and 57 primary schools have started the programme, with each nominating an Assistive Technology Champion to receive training and support to review and implement more assistive technology in their schools.

As part of the programme a suite of resources are being developed that all schools can access. Assistive Technology Resource Bank One and Two have been published and are located on the nasen website. The resource banks contain a variety of resources designed to support the auditing of resources as well as policy and professional development in the field of AT.

All resources are free to access once you have registered on the nasen website.
