### **Calling educators, parents, and young learners who use assistive technology!**

The Micro:bit Educational Foundation, in collaboration with Google and Microsoft, has introduced new [accessibility features to MakeCode for micro:bit](https://microbit.org/news/2026-07-13/makecode-screen-reader-support/), including keyboard navigation and screen reader support for block-based coding.

Now we need your help to try the new accessibility features and give us your feedback.

Looking for feedback from:

- Educators, parents, and carers supporting learners aged 8-25 who use assistive technology.
- Young people (aged 8–25) who use assistive tech, taking part with adult permission.
- Specifically, those using screen readers, braille displays, magnifiers, high-contrast settings, switches, eye gaze, voice control, or keyboard-only navigation.

How to take part:

1. Explore our Accessibility support resources
2. Try the MakeCode editor
3. Take the survey

Thank you for helping us make coding more inclusive for everyone. Please let us know if you have any questions by contacting Paul Robinson – [paul@microbit.org](mailto:paul@microbit.org "mailto:paul@microbit.org").
