Today, Chantelle came and spoke to us about BCEdAccess, and we were able to hear from Chantelle on her experience & the things BCEdAccess does.
The link to the BCEdAccess site is here. Below I have made a podcast on my reflections of this visit, and highlight how inaccessible it is for parents to get assessments for their children.
ACCESS… NOT SO ACCESSIBLE?
I am curious as to what has been done to help with the issue of assessment costs, and long wait periods… I’m definitely going to be doing some inquiry on the several difficulties with getting assessments as I find this heartbreaking & upsetting. I have my own struggles with my neurodivergence, and only in adulthood was I able to access help. As future teachers, we need to think about how we can create an inclusive classroom for ALL (not just because we know about students with certain IEPs). Normalize a holistic school experience, with opportunities for every single student!
