Surrey Schools Completes Accessibility Video Series with Video Highlighting Inclusion
As we reported in February, earlier this year the Surrey School District launched “an exciting new four-part animated video series on accessibility to help students, parents and staff better understand language around accessibility, namely the terms disability, barriers, accessibility and inclusion.
Previously, only one video had been released. All four videos are now available to watch.
Stories/Videos in the Series:
DABC worked in partnership with B.C. Council of Administrators of Inclusive Support In Education and Untapped Accessibility to support school districts in BC as they implemented the requirements of the Accessible BC Act (learn more about the Accessible Organizations Project: bcaccessibilityhub.ca), and we are very pleased to see this work continuing!
