All our guides and training sessions are complimentry – Féach does not charge for any services
PRIMARY SCHOOL
School Guides
In 2021, knowing that schools were desperate for knowledge on how to adapt and accommodate their blind and visually impaired pupils, Féach wrote this guide using parents and teachers experiences and best practices in mind. This was our 1st guide for schools and has been very successful, explaining to teachers, principals and SNAs practical advice, the expanded core curriculum, additional skills needed and ways to support the pupil.

AT/IT Guides
Our most recent set of guides, written from an educators point of view. In contains the AT/IT skills needed by a B/VI pupil by the time they complete 6th class. Often a SET, SNA or teacher are unsure on where to even start with technology, these guides have a simple audit to clarify where the pupil is in relation to their abilities, and then gives simple steps to get the pupil to the standard they need to be at.
POST PRIMARY
School Guides
Why should every school have to re-invent the wheel each time they get a low vision student? We have compiled all the information you need from schools and teachers that have gone before you. This comprehensive guide discusses RACE, information for individual subject teachers, ECC, incidental learning and more. Email info@feach.ie for a digital or hard copy.
