Early Years Training
We Can Help
“I have learned such a lot over these 5 units. Not having early years experience I found all the ‘give examples in provision’ aspects challenging, but that was the point in me doing the training. I have already used some of my new knowledge in my interactions with parents of SEND children. Staff have already brought things to my attention that they have noticed as a result of the training. I know that this training will be hugely beneficial as I move forward as SENCO. Particular thanks to Melissa for her supportive feedback each week. ”
Early Years online training feedback June 2020
“It has been really useful! So glad I got to do it and thanks for your in-depth feedback as well. I found all of the videos really useful as they’ve shown strategies, different examples using children around each module (not just written case studies), really appropriate information and in-depth where needed. I’ve learned a lot and I feel a lot more confident being in charge of S&L at school. I feel I could pass on some really useful information to our TAs in EYFS.”
Early Years online training feedback July 2020
“Very informative and relevant. So important to have a better understanding and ways to support pupils in school and at home. Really great to hear parents’ perspective.”
DLD training feedback October 2019
“Just completed the “Play for language” training in my “rainbow room”, my hub of lockdown learning and creativity! The therapists have done a great job of putting this training together, am finding it very interesting.”
Early Years online training course (Play for Language session), May 2020
“The differentiated examples of social stories demonstrated how to model the language appropriately for pupils working at different levels. Prompt, clear and constructive feedback after completion of workbook.”
‘Colourful Semantics’ -Supporting Pupils using the Approach training, May 2020
“I have enjoyed the course. I REALLY like how this part focuses on Phase 1 Phonics (Letters and Sounds) as I feel this is a really important part of the phonics scheme and unfortunately is skipped over by many settings as they try to get children to recognise letters and put them together before securing the foundations.”
Early Years ‘Speech Sounds’ online training, June 2020
“Advice and feedback was great…I really enjoyed it! It was very good and informative.”
‘Colourful Semantics’ -Supporting Pupils using the Approach training, May 2020
“Excellent training! It was so informative – looking forward to any further training.”
DLD training feedback October 2019
“I found that it’s given me really sound knowledge of AAC and how I can use this in class to prompt and increase communication.
It’s helpful having feedback for every section so I can see where to make any improvements/adjustments. I’ll keep hold of this and use it as a guide and refresher’”
‘Supporting AAC Users training, May 2020
“I found this course very useful for my work at the specialist SEN College I am based. Much of the framework was new to me. Core & fringe words; communicative functions; modelling; were all things which I’d implicitly used but had not previously recognised as such. I found the course content well explained and, for me, at the right depth of challenge.”
