The main thing I have taken from this course, among many others, is how to be very focused and specific in the setting of targets and interventions. I have realised I had a tendency to be quite broad in my outcomes - simply saying a child will learn a new sound - and didn't break the targets down in the necessary components. My tutor has been invaluable in helping me with this and it will definitely have a positive impact on both my teaching and my target setting for my TA.
This training has built upon and strengthened the knowledge I have already obtained over the years in my work place as a TA.

Attachment and Trauma

I have better understanding on how the classroom needs setting up and why you set it up for the child. I now understand what resources I will need for the child to grow and flourish through his school life Also, I am able to talk about visual impairment more confidently.

Vision Impairment

This training as made me more confident in identifying the pupils difficulties and the impact this can have on their everyday life. Setting SMART targets has made me realise how important it is to be very clear with expected outcomes and how these can be measured.
