“Personally the training has given me a greater understanding and recognition of children who have motor coordination difficulties and what they face. When you know what they (and the parents) are facing it gives you a better basis on how to help them and ensure a more positive outcome. The training has also helped in the various strategies that can be implemented within the school setting. The notes are something I can refer to which is also a great help. I have found this training very interesting and informative.

“This training has been very useful, I am particularly interested in adding more information to my Autism training notes. I feel more confident to talk about the motor coordination difficulties of CYP with an Autism diagnosis and will feed into the profiling of a young person. The training will have a big impact on my role as Advisor when it comes to talking about whole school adaptions and interventions. I am working with a pupil who currently has a Dyslexic profile and possible motor coordination difficulties, my next steps will be to approach the case with Motor coordination specs on using the assessment tools in the resources as a starting point.

“This training has been very beneficial for myself as someone who has recently started working at a special school and I have no experience of working with children with MSI. I can now take what I have learnt and improve my own practice.

“As a number of staff have completed the training it can be used as a discussion point when planning as a team to meet the needs of our pupils. This will ensure a broader impact across the school. Understanding attachment disorders makes you consider a more individual approach to supporting children - one size doesn't fit all!
