AV1

Richard Marrett, Teacher/Co-ordinator for LAC & Alternative provision: Very accessible for lessons, but does not help with interaction and socialising skills when at home all the time.
Amy, Teacher and Pastoral Leader: Connectivity is increasingly becoming more and more of an issue, signal drops out during lessons and the AV1 is not always providing clear audio or visuals for the student. When it does work it is a 10 out of 10 but just not 100% reliable unfortunately.
Emma Murray, Headteacher: Difficulty setting up. Primary schools do not have technicians and it took a long time. It is also difficult because you can only have one user on one robot. We have two children in the same class that need to access it and we have to have two AVs. Also it is a real chore to delete a user and set up the AV for the next child.
