Widgit Symbols were originally developed to support students in the classroom who have special requirements for learning and communicating. The positive impact of using these symbols to raise attainment, increase student engagement and improve behaviour has resulted in the adoption of symbols in mainstream education across the United Kingdom and through Widgit partners worldwide.

Widgit's simply drawn, colourful symbols each illustrates a single concept, in a clear concise way, and cover a range of topics (including many curricular areas) wide enough to make them suitable for all abilities. Our symbols follow a schematic structure facilitating independent vocabulary development.

the reach of the Widgit Symbol Set in the UK education sector is extensive. 80% of special schools and 50% of mainstream schools use Widgit Symbol Set with learners who would benefit from the support that it provides.
