“As my role is very similar to mentoring the impact has mainly been on how I would approach working with a VI student. E.g. greatly increased confidence in talking to VI students about their needs; increased awareness of the impact that VI can have on learning and development as a whole. This has also meant a more joined up approach to VI students that is inclusive and takes into account the implications of a social model of disability and the wider adjustments that should be made to allow VI students equal access.

“I am inspired to use my training in the classroom.

“This course is very user-friendly, informative and thought provoking. My tutor has been very supportive and helpful with feedback. This training will have a very positive impact on outcomes. It has helped me further understand the barriers and implications of sensory impairment, its effects on learning and how we can help students overcome these problems and achieve their potential. Many thanks.

“A child I am working with regarding attendance at school - this course has made me realise that the behaviours he shows all have meanings behind them. I will definitely change my approach with this child and apply some of the strategies I have gained on the course.
