Accessibility and MCC Digital - Education is for everyone.
Apple technology breaks down barriers and enables individuals with SEN to learn in a way that is tailored to work for them. A combination of multimedia materials; animation with narration, to images with text imbedded, are providing a multitude of benefits. These less formal ways of working and conversational learning are proving effective not just in the SEN space, but in mainstream education via interactive learning methodologies. This helps integrate those with SEN into the classroom
​
At MCC we pride ourselves on providing our schools, teachers and students with the best possible training to ensure an equal learning environment. We can provide bespoke SEN training delivered by one of our Apple Professional Learning Specialists (APLS) which can empower both teachers and learners alike.
