“I thought the last video was very clear and this gave more knowledge of how a person with ASD felt from his young years to reaching adulthood. With this knowledge I feel more confident in understanding how a child may react to certain secondary classroom /subjects. this will give me the confidence to implement appropriate strategies when supporting students with ASD.

“I feel I have gained a much better understanding working with deaf children although I felt confident working with my pupil I feel now that I would be able to support other staff within school and give advice [to new teachers] when MG moves up the school.

“I think it has highlighted the need to take lots of small steps to ensure a pupil continues to make progress and evaluate our role/ interventions.

“I have improved my understanding of ASD and what difficulties children with autism may have. This has helped me to identify the difference between ASD and other disorders. Moreover, learnt that often children can have ASD and Dyslexia or ASD and ADHD and others. Furthermore, I have learnt many strategies to improve my interventions. This has helped me to set my goals to support my student. I have also learnt the importance of the collaborative partnership between the parents and the school.
