Disability teaching pack for secondary schools

"This excellent pack for key stages 3 and 4..." 
Times Educational Supplement

Listen online to the Speaking for Ourselves interviews

Made possible by the Heritage Lottery Fund and our volunteers, the Speaking for Ourselves teaching pack has been produced to work, in particular, within the National Curriculum for pupils on Key Stages 3 and 4 studying History, English and Citizenship.

Other students or study groups looking at the social model of disability will also find this oral history of people with cerebral palsy highly relevant.
