Testimonials

I enjoyed the course and added to my knowledge of deafness that I already had. What I have learnt I will try and pass onto classes that have deaf pupils. I will also let other staff know that I have done this course and if I can help them in any way I will.

Deafness

It has made me more considerate of the teaching environment being offered to children who may have a hearing loss as well as their other additional learning needs that I am supporting.eg factors affecting the acoustics of the environment, especially at the present time with Covid restrictions in place and learning sessions mainly being offered virtually.

Other Position

Deafness

This training has helped me become much more confident in my understanding of how best to help and support my student. Reading others’ ideas and opinions has also given me some good practical ideas to use in my work.

Vision Impairment

This training has been useful for background information and encouraging my critical analysis of any support required for my VI pupil. It has been incredibly enlightening showing all the different aspects of needs and the correct support required. The demonstration of different subject classes was incredibly useful for tips on how to best to approach the resources, and the material on creating a safe environment was particularly informative. I now feel more confident with my knowledge of VI pupil's needs and the material, resources and support required to allow them the best possible chance to gain independence and achieve their goals.
