“I have learned so much from this training. I feel confident in supporting and understanding the subject. We have a child in our class that is really benefiting from some of the strategies that have been implemented due to this training.

“This has been difficult to assess as we have not been in school for any length of time due to COVID however when asked to assess a student with anxiety associated with attachment it helped me to review the student and suggest strategies that may help.

“Before I did this course I only had a very basic knowledge of deafness. I do not currently work with deaf students but I maybe working with one next year so the information contained within this course will help me to support the student.

“The main thing I have taken from this course, among many others, is how to be very focused and specific in the setting of targets and interventions. I have realised I had a tendency to be quite broad in my outcomes - simply saying a child will learn a new sound - and didn't break the targets down in the necessary components. My tutor has been invaluable in helping me with this and it will definitely have a positive impact on both my teaching and my target setting for my TA.
