Every child learns differently. Every child deserves the opportunity to participate and succeed.

Disability Awareness Through Stories and Learning
Children Learn From the Characters They Meet
Stories are one of the simplest ways to introduce children to experiences different from their own.
Our stories include disabled and non-disabled characters sharing adventures, solving problems, making friends and participating in everyday life.
Disability does not always need to be the lesson of the story.
Sometimes a child who uses a wheelchair can simply be part of the adventure. Sometimes a character experiences the world differently. Sometimes the important lesson is friendship, courage, imagination or kindness.
By including disability naturally within children's stories, we can help make disability a familiar part of childhood.
Inclusive Education Resources for Teachers and Schools
Teachers don't always need another complicated programme.
Sometimes they simply need a good story, an engaging activity or an accessible learning game that helps children understand a new concept.
Our resources are designed to support everyday classroom learning while encouraging inclusion and participation.

Supporting Inclusive Classrooms
Inclusion Is About More Than Being Present
A truly inclusive learning environment gives children opportunities to participate, communicate, develop skills and learn alongside their peers.
This can involve accessible classrooms, appropriate learning support, flexible activities, inclusive playgrounds and positive attitudes towards disability and difference.
Children learn in many different ways. Some benefit from visual activities, others from listening, repetition, movement, practical experiences or interactive games.
By providing different ways to engage with learning, we can help more children develop confidence and participate in educational activities.
Learning at School and at Home
Inclusive education doesn't stop at the classroom door.
Parents, caregivers and whānau can use our interactive learning games, children's stories and downloadable resources to support learning at home.
Whether a child is learning their times tables, developing reading skills, exploring sensory activities or learning about disability and inclusion, positive learning experiences matter.
Every child deserves opportunities to learn in ways that suit them, discover their strengths and develop confidence at their own pace.
