Hello Anna
We have a student here with bad tinnitus. We have approval for him to have an iPod for his exams. We have the iPod well before the exams begin and check the contents. It's about 5 pieces of classical music. We then keep it under secure conditions until all his exams are over. We make sure it's charged before the start and during the exams season. We had no complaints from other students about why he was allowed to use it and it all went very smoothly.
Hope that helps

Hi
I have just been approached by a teacher about a student who suffers badly from tinnitus which is exacerbated by silence. Has anyone else had to deal with this as student is now in Year 11 and is getting worried about her exams. I know from literature etc that white noise often sorts it out but wondered if anyone had any ideas?
Thanks
Anna
