The iPad is a fantastic tool when considering the needs of our most vulnerable learners. The iPad’s easy to use and intuitive interface lends its self to a richer and more dynamic and diverse experience for SEN pupils.
The iPad supports our developing, creative curriculum and it allows SEN pupils, thorough its many in-built features and many available apps to engage at an exciting, stimulating and respectful level.
I've demoed the majority of these apps at an iPad training session with an SEN vibe.
I'd welcome feedback or any further editions to the list.
