Online SEND and Teacher CPD courses

“This training has supported my understanding of deafness and the resources required for them.

“I have a much clearer understanding of the different levels of hearing loss and the aids that can be used. My understanding of how the environment can impact the learners experience has much improved too.

“The training has helped me review my current practices - to re-evaluate some of the interventions I currently deliver and add in some additional interventions. Thus, ensuring I am better able to adapt my approach and offer the best interventions to support each individual child's needs.

“This course has been very useful to complete. I have limited experience teaching deaf pupils, but it highlighted the gaps in my knowledge and has given me a range of useful, practical tools to use in my teaching. I now feel a lot more confident in teaching my deaf pupil. I also now have a new understanding of how the learning environment will have a direct impact on the pupil. I have enjoyed learning about the reasons for hearing loss and it has explained aspects of the human auditory system that I knew little about. It has been very useful to set SMART targets and look at how I can improve my teaching practice which will result in a positive outcome for my pupil. I have also enjoyed reading my colleagues comments in the forums and can relate what they have said to my own teaching. I recommend this course to any member of teaching or support staff working with deaf pupils.
