“This training would be good as an introduction to new staff with little understanding of deafness.

“This training has, for me, cemented the fact that mental health and wellbeing can be nurtured and cared for in school settings. If children feel safe, valued and supported within their educational setting, then hopefully they will grow into young adults who feel like they have purpose and value in our world.

“Why I have finished so quickly is because I really enjoyed it. Learning lots of new things. It was just so good to be given ideas on how to support the children within our setting. I can't wait to use some of the ideas and put them into practice. I have spoken to my work colleges about things that I have learnt as we have a deaf child in every room. The information has helped them understand what helps the children as well. Unfortunately, I can’t work in every room in the nursery, but I have been feeding them the information as I have been learning it.

“A very timely course after the current lock-down. Supporting Social/emotional mental health & well-being of children in Primary is one of my strengths and reading from up to date & relevant sources was very helpful. Forum questions & statements enabled space to think through issues, rather than just reading through resources. Setting goals shaped my classroom practice, embedding knowledge into practice.
