Town Council. An attempt was done to trace the academic performance of children with

visual impairment.

ordinary print. It was also easy for the researcher to phrase one rephrase questions to

The researcher also used questionnaires to the head teachers and teachers because it was

easy to track busy head teachers and teachers.

Entry was gained by seeking permission from the two head teachers of the schools.

Data was analyzed qualitatively. The researcher used tables and percentages to have

better meaning of data which was collected.

From findings the reaseacher noted that: There were many appropriate learning materials

for learners with visual impairment. There was also lack of knowledge of how to support

children with visual impairment and even how to use the available resources was a

problem.

Further more the present curriculum does not favour learning with visual impairment.

There was less involvement of parents for learners with visual impairment in their

education.

According to the respondents and their responses on the ground, the learners with visual

impairment are being left behind and therefore can not perform as expected.
