“This training has been useful for background information and encouraging my critical analysis of any support required for my VI pupil. It has been incredibly enlightening showing all the different aspects of needs and the correct support required. The demonstration of different subject classes was incredibly useful for tips on how to best to approach the resources, and the material on creating a safe environment was particularly informative. I now feel more confident with my knowledge of VI pupil's needs and the material, resources and support required to allow them the best possible chance to gain independence and achieve their goals.

“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 allowed me to understand and implement strategies that effectively support students with Dyslexia based on the needs of students with Dyslexia and their individual abilities. It has allowed space for understanding the effects of Dyslexia on students and how best to support them. It has given me clarity and specification on what Dyslexia is and has helped me to put together a learning programme suitable for these students that has achievable and realistic goals.

“The training has extended my knowledge and understanding on dyslexia further.
