Grid 3 has many uses in school, helping language development from the earliest interaction through all levels of AAC to full control of a computer with alternative access methods.
The Grid 3 Education Licence is available for schools, colleges and universities that require 20 or more Grid 3 licences on their network. Each licence costs £180.
There is a minimum purchase of 20 licenses. After that you have the flexibility to add on licences as and when you need.
The licence operates a token leasing system – meaning you can install Grid 3 on as many devices as you’d like, and have your chosen number of licences running at one time.
Once you shut down Grid 3, the licence is released and ready to be used again by another student. Providing you are online, your licence can be used anywhere – not just limited to the school site.
Works with any Windows computer, tablet or AAC device. Available in the UK and Ireland.
Grid 3 comes with resources (grid sets) and features designed for every student, regardless of age or ability. Grid sets are easy to adapt to the needs of each individual student, and you’ll also find that you can quickly create your own content to fit around your teaching and learning needs.
Remember that every grid set you create will work with every type of access, including: switch, touch and eye gaze.
PCS symbols and Acapela children’s voices can be added to your purchase to tailor Grid 3 to your students.
Grid 3 supports total communication across the classroom and facilitates using AAC in every lesson. There are symbolised AAC resources for all levels of literacy and access.
