Assistive technology can open up access to the curriculum and make learning accessible in ways that could never be achieved before. This book will guide you in identifying needs and considering critical issues as you support the introduction of assistive technology to learners and the classroom environment.
Chapters share key evidence-based theories and practices to introduce good assistive technology principles within the classroom and support informed decision-making. They consider which tools you may already have to hand, alongside more specialised solutions, offering a range of real-world examples to show how these can facilitate equitable learning. Readily available accessibility tools in everyday software can often be cost-effective solutions and building a concrete understanding of assistive technology will help to create a legacy of good practice in every setting.
This book provides valuable insights and guidance to enhance your assistive technology journey within the classroom. It will be key reading for special educational needs coordinators, teachers and senior leaders supporting learners with complex needs.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
