Accessibility – Vital for some, Valuable for all.

Did you know that technology companies provide integrated accessibility features on a website, mobile application or electronic document which can be easily navigated and understood by a wide range of users.

This playlist of videos allows you to personalise your iPad using Accessibility features built into the iPad. Vital for some, but valuable for all learners.

Digital Health & Wellbeing

At Tynecastle digital technologies and the internet are powerful tools which open up new and exciting opportunities to enhance Learning and Teaching. We work with all of our staff, young people and families to encourage the responsible use of ICT throughout the curriculum and follow the CEC Responsible Use Agreement and agreed policies to minimise potential online safety risks.

Our young people are encouraged and supported throughout their learning to:

• use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly
• recognise acceptable and unacceptable behaviour
• identify a range of ways to report concerns or seek help about content

Here you can find a selection of recommended websites that provide up to date guidance and support materials for students related to Cyber Resilience and internet Safety. Click the buttons to visit websites and access support.
