Testimonials

This training has given me an in depth understanding of dyslexia as a learning difference and has helped me to be able to use the strategies and resources recommended within this course to support and benefit the pupils at risk of dyslexia that I work with. The outcomes are positive and the learners are gaining self-esteem and confidence, and are achieving their targets.
It has made me much more aware of wellbeing and mental health and specific challenges as well as the impact of different conditions and situations. I feel much more confident in supporting children within our school as well as developing CPD for the staff for us all to move forward in this crucial area. It has been very thought provoking for myself as a teacher but also as a parent and it has had a positive impact on my classroom practice. I am also more confident to plan and implement interventions and know that it is useful to have all the information on this course to refer back to. I have really enjoyed this course. Thank you for your support.
The training has improved my knowledge of the many different types of VI that can affect children and their development. I have learned a great deal about techniques and resources that I can use to support children with VI and I hope to apply some of these skills in my work. I have also learned more about the challenges faced by children with VI and hope to help them overcome these.
