Testimonials
“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
“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
“I think it has highlighted the need to take lots of small steps to ensure a pupil continues to make progress and evaluate our role/ interventions.
Advisory Teacher
“This training has certainly given me a more in depth understanding of deafness and how this can impact on an individuals learning and communication as well as the support out there for children when starting in educational settings. I am certainly more mindful of my positioning when working with deaf children, such as not sitting in front of a window, which has resulted in the child remaining more focused on me.
