Abingdon & Witney College Shortlisted for prestigious AoC Beacon Award for work with Wiki-Me
Every year, the College provides unique support and teaching for more than one hundred students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). The project that has caught the eye of the judges is the Pathway department's use of WikiMe, a digital platform that enables SEND students with complex needs to record and celebrate achievements, share progress and information with other stakeholders and parents and provides a safe interactive social media space for our most vulnerable learners to interact with friends.
Angela Petruso, Pathways Manager, said: "We are thrilled to be nominated for this project as it validates the impact of WikiMe on our students lives and on their ability to truly see what amazing progress they are making."
Di Batchelor, Principal at Abingdon & Witney College, said: “Once again we find ourselves recognised in multiple categories at the AoC’s Beacon Awards; I’m delighted to have continued this tradition, as we know how well regarded the Awards are.
