“This training has helped me to see where deaf pupils may struggle. It has made me much more aware of how I can adapt the environment to better suit the needs of the pupil and has also given me a variety of ideas/tools with which can help pupils with these needs.

“I am now implementing some of the practical ideas given in this course on a day to day basis and these are not only benefitting the dyslexic boy in my class but also others who may need help processing information. This has been a great course.

“Because deafness is invisible, it is difficult to understand just how much it can affect a child’s day-to-day life and lifelong potential. However, it is accepted that deaf children are at educational risk. Parents, teachers, audiologists and other professionals should work together with the child, to understand the hearing loss and to advocate for their listening needs. This training provides information and resources about how deafness can impact listening, learning as well as the possible social impact of deafness. Thank you.

“This training has helped me gain awareness of deafness, it has helped shaped my strategies and approaches.
