Newfield Vision Room

Many of our children have a visual impairment and we have now developed a new vision room which can also be used as a sensory room where they can work with staff specifically on improving and making use of their visual skills.

We are very fortunate to have one of our teachers, Tracy, who spent years studying for an additional qualification and is now a QTVI - Qualified Teacher for the Visually Impaired to advise staff and support children.

All of the children with a visual impairment have had a functional vision assessment carried out by our in house QTVI.

The children then follow stages of a positive looking programme to help them use their vision better.

The room is regularly updated with new fun activities and specialist resources for the children to use.
