#12 How We Cater for SEN Kids

A Parent & Teacher’s insight into UKVS

Ant’s been a teacher with UK Virtual School since the start and he’s seen it grow into what is today, and loves how it continues to grow. He says on this episode that UKVS “offers subjects to help students grow as people, not just as academic subjects”.

As well as being a teacher with the school, Ant has since enrolled his son, Monty. Monty has been diagnosed as being on the Autistic spectrum, and has special educational needs. Tune in as Ant shares many of his thoughts surrounding home school for young people with SEN.

Key take aways

Because of UKVS's small class sizes, the teachers got to know Monty really quickly, and can help him to learn in a way that suits him.
Ant's worked in other schools and colleges, many of which have “mission statements”. He considers the UKVS core values and the way they're implemented to be unique.
The extra support that UKVS provided has given Monty the confidence and strength to make a return to a traditional environment.
