Testimonials
'I just wanted to say thank you both very much. I haven’t ever taken any qualification which has been so focused on those taking it. All of the sessions made completing the assignments so much less stressful than could easily have been the case. Also I can think of very few courses I have taken that have been so relevant to actual practice. Lots of the stuff I have done I have taken straight into my school and used.'

‘This training has already had a big positive impact on my work. I have been able to reflect on practice with the view to plan and move my school forward in relation to SEND.’

‘The more I learnt on the course, the more confidence I had back in school to advise staff and parents and it gave me the knowledge to fight for the most important people in my role, the children. The training has been fantastic! We have had support throughout to enable us to achieve, we have been engaged, motivated and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it. ‘
