I had a the pleasure of seeing two former students at their apprenticeship at The Vineyard Hotel. They are both working in their Chef qualifications through Spectrum Chefs Academy.

I am extremely proud of these two young men.....

This week has been special as I've had several students showcase where they've gone from my little school.

2 are currently doing an apprenticeship at a 5 star restaurant

1 is running her own business with help from her dad.

1 is studying music in the USA

1 is studying politics in Canada.

Moments like this remind me of the value of what I do.

Here we see peer mentoring at play. ASDAN activities support peer mentoring a great deal.

In this case the young lady is assisting the young man in learning to play a simple tune. As he does this by typing on his iPad with his nose, she also uses her nose when helping to ensure what she's teaching will wirk for him.

He is completing Lifeskills Challenges activity on using AAC to create digital music.
She is doing the Citizenship short course Community Service task.

Hi all
Aadam is one of my students who seldom comes online as his cerebral palsy makes this very hard as he requires an eyegaze for speech and then a tablet for the daily call i do with most of my students.

Anyway, he has extremely limited movement due to the quadriplegic cerebral palsy. He also cannot speak (hence the eye gaze)

He is passionate about music and has been wanting to make music for years.

We're now exploring this as an assignment for him as part of his Lifeskills Challenges journey.

Part of this is that he's set up a YouTube channel to showcase his journey as he masters creating and playing music on an iPad. The GarageBand app has been a huge success so far.

To this end, can I please ask that you consider subscribing to his channel and help him build an audience.

Thank you

I have quadriplegic cerebral palsy, which means I can’t use my arms and legs and I can’t speak. I love music and have always wanted to make my own music. But many people have said that I can’t. This channel is to show how I am learning to make music with my nose and my tablet. Join me on my mu...
