“This training has built upon and strengthened the knowledge I have already obtained over the years in my work place as a TA.

“Because deafness is invisible, it is difficult to understand just how much it can affect a child’s day-to-day life and lifelong potential. However, it is accepted that deaf children are at educational risk. Parents, teachers, audiologists and other professionals should work together with the child, to understand the hearing loss and to advocate for their listening needs. This training provides information and resources about how deafness can impact listening, learning as well as the possible social impact of deafness. Thank you.

“I have a good understanding of strategies that will support the children in my whole class with good practise teaching skills.

“This training has given me a more in-depth knowledge and understanding of VI, the causes and effectives of sight loss. Thus, it has helped me in my confidence and strategies in working with a young VI child.
