Testimonials
“This training as made me more confident in identifying the pupils difficulties and the impact this can have on their everyday life. Setting SMART targets has made me realise how important it is to be very clear with expected outcomes and how these can be measured.
Other Position
“I cannot really say too much about the impact yet due to Covid but I feel more confident to spot and deal with issues and create mini interventions for the children to improve their behaviour. Thank you.
Teaching Assistant
“This has really given an insight into ways to assist the VI child in our setting so that they can become more independent both in and out of school. There were lots of tips and advice within the useful videos that have been put into practice straight away. Unfortunately, the Covid pandemic has disrupted the face-to-face sessions as normally there would have been more and we could, as a collective, learned more from each other and discussed our ongoing learning. I have enjoyed this course, gained a lot from it and would recommend it.
Senior Leader
“I was able to identify an area of difficulty in a student diagnosed with Dyspraxia and set a SMART goal to provide support in this area. He has already shown some improvements with organisation skills. This training has improved my knowledge and understanding in this area which in turn has improved my confidence in carrying out my role within school.
