Spring 2004

Accessibility for hearing impaired people is increased.
Long term School plans to improve accessibility to pupils with scotopic sensitivity, which is an increasing disability in school, over the next three years. Replace existing lights in classrooms with special lights designed to dissipate specific colours in fluorescent tubes, enabling children with this disability to see more clearly. Advice will be sought from the LEA on whether capital money can be used. Over a period of three years, all classrooms have had existing lights replaced with special lights to enable children with scotopic sensitivity to see more clearly. Start summer term 2004 and finish summer 2004. Accessibility for visual impaired people is increased.
