Testimonials
“This training has had an impact on outcomes because I have been observing the background noise, lighting, objects that are weapons, image displayed, colours and more. I have tried to keep the noise a bit quieter than normal, and my one-two-one child has not screamed, shouted and stamped their feet when the children have been quiet.
Teaching Assistant
“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.
Qualified Teacher
“This has really given an insight into ways to assist the VI child in our setting so that they can become more independent both in and out of school. There were lots of tips and advice within the useful videos that have been put into practice straight away. Unfortunately, the Covid pandemic has disrupted the face-to-face sessions as normally there would have been more and we could, as a collective, learned more from each other and discussed our ongoing learning. I have enjoyed this course, gained a lot from it and would recommend it.
Senior Leader
“I really enjoyed the course and it has given me a better understanding of working with a deaf child in an education setting and has given me the tools to be able to enhance the pupils experience and has enabled me to be able to provide the best resources to give the pupil access to the same as her peers.
