“I will now look to break down targets.

“Overall, this training has given me the knowledge to have confidence in my role. Making assessments of pupils needs and progress. It has given me the confidence to work alongside staff/ lead and VI specialist teacher with the knowledge to join in conversations understanding and using the terminology as well as understanding.

“The training has improved my knowledge of the many different types of VI that can affect children and their development. I have learned a great deal about techniques and resources that I can use to support children with VI and I hope to apply some of these skills in my work. I have also learned more about the challenges faced by children with VI and hope to help them overcome these.

“Before I took this training, I have no confidence to identify correctly the students with behaviour difficulties. This training gave me knowledge about how to understand the behaviours and how to support the students with difficult behaviours. Not only for the students, but this course also gave me knowledge about how to be a supportive teacher, how to handle the class (class management knowledge). The tutor I met was very patient too. When we had a face-to-face sessions, he gave very effective suggestions and was so helpful for my overall learning.
