Here you will be able to access our resources mapped to the Curriculum for Excellence, alongside a suite materials that link to the themes we explore providing an auditing resource for your classroom.
This set of reviews is designed for educational practitioners (it has a Scottish bent) to make it easier for them to represent disability in their teaching resources, and to discuss themes around disability in line with the social model of disability. It has ideas for how the resources may be used with first and second level learners, mapped to the Experiences and Outcomes of the Curriculum for Excellence.
Please note that some organisations may not serve the entire UK (e.g., may operate only in Scotland).
The resources reviewed here were not included through sponsorship or partnership with industry. The resources were included after review by teacher-educators, student-teachers or teachers in Scotland and practitioners are encouraged to choose resources that will best suit their learning context and needs.
The reviews are intended to be a useful starting point for people who may be looking for information, advice, or practical support. It does not include all organisations working in these areas, and we know that there are some types of impairment that aren’t currently covered by this list at all. We hope to expand it in the future and heartily welcome your suggestions to that effect.
We have endeavoured to provide up-to-date information, but encourage you to please check with individual organisations about what they currently offer and how best to contact them. Inclusion on this list does not constitute an endorsement of these organisations, or their information or services. If you have suggestions for further resources to add to the directory, please let us know here. Provide feedback here
