It's all been insightful, to be able to have a clear discussion has enabled me to be clearer to whether I need to go as a manager to support others.

All of the training was useful and could relate to, a lot to take away to discuss with colleagues and things to put in place at my setting.

Jemma Rowley Lane School Mental Health Training

I found the Level 3 SEND course challenging but very interesting. I learnt so much over the duration of the course, all relevant to practice which I have been able to implement in setting, to strengthen our SEN offering support to both children their carers/parents. Hazel was always on hand to offer advice or guidance when needed. I would strongly recommend this course even to those already familiar with the subject because it is so comprehensive and encourages you to reflect on what you already practice.

Samantha Walker Senior Practitioner from Helen Hawes P.D.N Level 3 Award for Special Educational Needs Coordinator in Early Years Settings

I am a Level 6 qualified Early Years Coordinator and I recently completed my Level 3 SEND Course. I was able to reflect on my current practice and make positive changes through what I was learning. I enjoyed the simplicity and organisation of the course, needing to answer pre set questions to show your understanding with all evidence stored in your own, personal portfolio. This course certainly made me more confident within my role as a SENCO

Jessica Ellis Early Years Coordinator - Bradley Bar Day Nursery Level 3 Award for Special Educational Needs Coordinator in Early Years Settings

I found the course really enjoyable, it enabled me to reflect on my current and previous roles, look at legislation and documentation in depth, think about policies and how these impact on the families and children who are at the centre of it all. It has broadened my knowledge and supported my understanding of the work I do every day.

The course online was easy to navigate and being able to do it at my own pace enabled me to balance the course alongside work and other commitments.

I am coming to the end of the Teaching assistant level 3 course. I have thoroughly enjoyed the course. I was employed by my work placement after the first term which I am very pleased about!

Highly recommend’.

I will be able to use my skills and knowledge gained from this course into my setting. This is because I have learnt a variety of different and new things which will overall help me in my performance and my ability to support children's learning and development. My tutor (hazel) has been so fantastic. She has come out to observe me a few times. I clearly understood what was going to be observed and she was able to give me feedback on how it went. Through the course Hazel has been so supportive and offered the best support. She is so friendly and has given me such a lovely experience completing this course.
