Special Needs
The worksheets listed below are all suitable for Secondary pupils with MLD. You will need to check the language and vocabulary used and, if necessary, prepare your pupils beforehand. You are strongly advised to divide your pupils into small groups and give each one a different topic to explore. This will greatly ease congestion in the galleries and gives an opportunity for interesting reporting-back work at school.  Worksheets usually take between 45 - 60 minutes to complete.
