This guide builds upon Ace Centre’s “Developing AAC Policies in Schools” document from 2001 with contributions from 25 professionals working in the field of AAC. It has been revised and updated to meet the needs of the current situation within education settings in England, leading the way forward for successful inclusion of AAC users, through the promotion of AAC policies.
