Accessible Printing Tips for SEN and Printable Paper - Teletext Tools Page 502
Choose wider lines, larger boxes and fewer crowded areas on each sheet.
Use dark print on light paper. Avoid busy backgrounds and weak grey lines.
Predictable margins, rows and guides make the page easier to scan.
Print at 100% or actual size so spacing does not shrink or shift.
Use wider line spacing for handwriting and note pages when text feels cramped.
Remove extra boxes, decoration and dense instructions where possible.
Some users prefer off-white or tinted paper, while others need white.
Keep headings, margins and line starts in predictable places.
Clear boxes, strong baselines and visible margins can improve orientation.
Fewer writing lines or grid areas can be easier than a dense full sheet.
Zoom the print preview and confirm that edges, lines and labels are visible.
Print one sheet before printing a full classroom or study set.
Prepare calmer worksheets, handwriting pages and classroom print resources.
Print clearer practice paper for homework, revision and home learning.
Choose simpler layouts for one-to-one work and targeted support.
Use paper that feels easier to read, write on and organise.
