“This training has had an impact on outcomes because I have been observing the background noise, lighting, objects that are weapons, image displayed, colours and more. I have tried to keep the noise a bit quieter than normal, and my one-two-one child has not screamed, shouted and stamped their feet when the children have been quiet.

“I really enjoyed hearing from deaf learners in the various videos. It helped me to understand what it was like to live in society with hearing loss. I am definitely more confident on how to support my current deaf learner and any future kiddies that I may meet. I have really enjoyed getting to know my learner this year - his attitude towards education and life has been an eye-opener to me. I've also enjoyed building a relationship with his mom and our external support teachers. I am happy to have completed this course - it was well worth it. Thank you.

“This training has, for me, cemented the fact that mental health and wellbeing can be nurtured and cared for in school settings. If children feel safe, valued and supported within their educational setting, then hopefully they will grow into young adults who feel like they have purpose and value in our world.

“It’s given me a greater understanding in multi-sensory impairment and will have an impact on the way I support learners in the future.
