Groups with Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND)
Our workshops have been enjoyed by many pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), and we understand that every class and every pupil is different.
Our sessions are delivered at a comfortable pace by experienced presenters, many of whom have worked in SEND settings. Many schools have found the immersive nature of virtual reality to be particularly engaging for their pupils, helping to capture attention and create memorable learning experiences.
We are happy to adapt our delivery where appropriate, including allowing extra time, offering flexible topic choices, reducing headset time where needed and providing tablets as an alternative for pupils who prefer not to wear a VR headset.

Our workshops are designed to be as inclusive as possible, and we regularly adapt sessions to meet the needs of individual pupils.
All VR experiences take place in a carefully controlled environment, with pupils remaining seated throughout. If a pupil is unable or prefers not to wear a VR headset, they can still take part using one of our tablets, which provides access to the same content.
If you have any pupils with specific accessibility requirements, please let us know before your visit. We'll be happy to work with you to ensure everyone can participate fully.
