Testimonials

This course has helped me work with a child in my class it has helped me communicate with him and helped him communicate with me.

Advisory Teacher

Multi-Sensory Impairment

Due to the current covid conditions, rules and regulations I have not been able to put things into physical practice. However, I am very happy with how the course has gone, what it has taught me and am confident I will be able to put together some good interventions to helps those children who need our help.
This training has helped me gain awareness of deafness, it has helped shaped my strategies and approaches.

Qualified Teacher

Deafness

The training course has been a stimulus for conversations with the teacher I work with and I have thought carefully about each of our children. Setting the goals and interventions was interesting: two I would automatically do and the third is a direct consequence of the training.

Teaching Assistant

Attachment and Trauma

This training course has made me more aware of MSI and given me a better understanding of things to consider when supporting children.

Teaching Assistant

Multi-Sensory Impairment

This has been difficult to assess as we have not been in school for any length of time due to COVID however when asked to assess a student with anxiety associated with attachment it helped me to review the student and suggest strategies that may help.

Teaching Assistant

Attachment and Trauma

It has made me realise how important it is to ensure that the pupils use their listening devices and sit in the correct position in class to help with their full understanding of the lesson content and lip read. I now understand that not only do the students have to deal with their deafness but also a lot of other issues too such as confidence and mental health issues.

Teaching Assistant

Deafness

It has provided me with strategies to implement and given me cause to think on how I can improve the way I deal with negative behaviours.
