Two Brooklands College students impressed an audience of 130 delegates last week at the North East Special Educational Needs Conference - Raising Achievement for All.
Harrison Sallans and Mark Dinning spoke and answered questions about their personal experiences of having special educational needs at school and college.
The students’ contribution to the conference ended with a huge round of applause, with delegates praising the students as “the stars of the conference”.
