    The lesson focuses on the life story of Paralympic founder Dr Guttmann and you may want to link it to work focused on the Paralympics. Suggestions for such work are given below.

  • HMD 2012 Special Educational Needs - Introduction

    This year’s resources for special settings have been conceived as three interlocking parts. Schools are free to pick and choose from these as they wish. You may want different classes within schools to do different things, or for one class to do it all, or for just a few students to do one thing. It is completely flexible and entirely up to you.
