make way for snowflake royalty. > archie, 7, is blind, hearing impaired, lives with a form of cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair. > "it set the tone because then we had to talk about the medical needs [which] are quite scary  so that was really important to set out what archie can do and not define him by his disability." > once ms (((gould))) was convinced the school was the right fit, she began preparing him and staff for the transition. > meetings are held each week to work out what archie requires and provide any additional support or training to staff. > archie is in the middle of all the action. > one teacher's aide verbally interprets tasks while another physically explains them by taking his hand and guiding him through the process. > before archie started at the school, ms (((gould))) wrote to students and parents explaining who he was and how they could interact with him.   -01/school-transitions-students-wit h-disability/104412992
