Testimonials

“The course has given me the confidence to apply for new jobs and discuss the knowledge I have gained during the interview process.

Other Position

“Even though I have a deaf son, I was confident with hearing aids etc however it has helped me become more aware of the importance of how I can make the classroom a deaf friendly environment.

Teaching Assistant

“ I am sure moving forward the training will have a very positive impact on outcomes. School is not quite as it should be at present due to the pandemic and I am not in a position to be able to implement strategies yet.

Teaching Assistant

Understanding and Supporting Behaviour

“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.

Teaching Assistant

Dyspraxia and Motor Coordination Difficulties

“This course has reinforced my strong belief that good mental health & well-being is key to everybody in society. When we have the tools to be able to help & support both others and ourselves, we can be equipped to look at strategies to offer support and guidance in times of need.

Teaching Assistant

Supporting Wellbeing and Mental Health in Schools

“The training has helped me revise my knowledge and understanding of ASC and developed my awareness of appropriate interventions. Exploring SMART goals reminded me of the small steps often required to help students achieve and improved my confidence to discuss these with schools.

Other Position

“I feel this course has given me an improved understanding of deafness and how best to support the children and families I work with.

Advisory Teacher

“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.
