Email received from Josie O'Hanlon re acceptance of Assistive Tech application that I submitted through my role as SENCo

Kia ora Andrea

Congratulations on your successful AT application for Harry.  Your commitment to Harry was reflected in your high quality application and I suggest you keep it as a template if you need to do another.

If when you have purchased the equipment, you would like me to support his teacher/teacher aide with some modelling to use it, let me know.

It is always a pleasure to work alongside you and the students in your school are very fortunate to have a teacher with a desire to support them to overcome the challenges they face.

Kind regards

Josie
