My Project
We aim to create a nurturing and supportive environment for our students by providing flexible seating and lighting options. This initiative is particularly beneficial for those with sensory issues. Our commitment is to ensure that every student feels comfortable and valued, allowing them to thrive in their best possible learning atmosphere.
Flexible seating will allow children to make choices for what benefits them most to be able to comfortably complete their work within our speech suite.
Flexible lighting will allow children with sensory needs to adjust the lighting to their liking.
Please consider donating to our project, it will be greatly appreciated.
