Testimonials

“The training has extended my knowledge and understanding on dyslexia further.

“The training gave me the information and time to explore and develop my own knowledge whilst also thinking about the school I work in. It gave me time to reflect on school policy and procedures as well as my own role and development. The information was clear and user friendly. I think the target sections were very useful in making sure the knowledge I have gained will have an impact on the school and my own development. I have led some training for support staff and we have also looked at the resources we are currently in school. We have also spoken more about mental health between staff and these conversations seem to happen more freely.

“It has brought my knowledge/understanding up to date after time out of the workplace

“I have a good understanding of strategies that will support the children in my whole class with good practise teaching skills.

“Allowed me to better communicate with hearing impaired students. I feel like my communication is now more effective.

“I am confident that I now possess the information and knowledge to have a positive impact on the learning of children with a hearing impairment.

“It has made me realise how important it is to ensure that the pupils use their listening devices and sit in the correct position in class to help with their full understanding of the lesson content and lip read. I now understand that not only do the students have to deal with their deafness but also a lot of other issues too such as confidence and mental health issues.

“This training has helped me gain awareness of a person who has hearing impairment, it has helped shaped my strategies and approaches.
