HOW VISION CHECKS HELP WITH READING AND WRITING
Thanks to vision checks with Screening for Schools software, a primary school child in London has been able to see better and make good progress with her reading and writing.
One such barrier to learning is undiagnosed vision deficiency. Research suggests 80% of learning is visual and that approximately 15% of school children have a vision problem.
Not being able to see properly can impact on attention, reading, participation in class activities, social interaction and behaviour.
While teachers are aware of the importance of good eyesight to learning and emotional well being, they do not have the tools to do anything about it.
And even when children have had their eyesight screened at Reception age, children’s eyesight can change as they grow.
That’s where Screening for Schools comes in
Screening for Schools is an on-line vision screening system, designed for use without clinical knowledge or direction. It enables schools to identify children who may have poor vision, easily and quickly. This includes problems with colour vision.
The test takes less than 3 minutes to complete. The software then generates a personalised report that explains the results and recommends a course of action.
Suitable for ages 7 upwards, in primary and secondary schools, Screening for Schools helps thousands of British schools. Use it when needed, the more it’s used, the more barriers to learning come down.
