We are looking for teachers who work with children with additional needs to help us with our research into picture books. We are in the process of creating the very first framework for inclusion that authors, illustrators and publishers will be able to use to help them create books that are more engaging for children with additional needs. In order to do this we are researching how picture books are used by teachers in special schools.
Teachers who take part in the project will receive three free picture books. They will then be asked to fill in a short questionnaire about each of the books.
If you are a teacher at a special school or unit and are interested in taking part in this ground-breaking project please get in touch with Ailie: ailie@mykindofbook.org.uk
We are very excited to have been funded by the Connected Innovator scheme to carry out this research.
