The assistive-tech procurement window forming under SEN budgets

The market for Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices is experiencing substantial growth. While funding for discreet classroom communication solutions is increasingly relying on education-centric procurement pathways, such as school SEN budgets and local authority assistive technology budgets, significant procurement fragmentation persists. This fragmentation, combined with concerns about teacher training burden and device distraction, acts as a barrier to widespread adoption and market capture for novel devices.
