Hi, I second Avichal.
When I wanted to pursue Science in class XI two years ago, there was no permission from the Board. Despite that, my school continued to be by my side. While there was apprehension in a few of the teachers (which is very natural), they slowly started supporting me greatly, helping me managing Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Some of the methods that I have used over these two years include: 1. Using tactile graphics wherever possible (though dealing with more complecated figure often becomes a challenge, where verbal discription is the best substitute) 2. Audio Graph Calculator is a great program that I came across relatively recently, that provides for an auditory feedback of the figures. (This worked for me, especially when elementary curves were involved) 3. The online NCERT textbook helped me quite a bit (despite the fact that there are a few accessibility challenges).
