Todays top tips are from our committee member, Kit Leung. Thank you, Kit!

Here are some great reminders from committee member, Alison Treasure, for you to consider when creating or choosing resources. There are a huge range of fonts out there for us to choose from, but when providing written resources for our dyslexic learners we need to prioritise readability and accessibility! Thank you, Alison!

Thursday's tips are from committee member, Lucy Higgs. Today we are reminded about the importance of being transparent with children about their needs, encouraging open conversations about their strengths and challenges, and developing their confidence so they are able to self-advocate.
