Dyscalculia Courses
Educators play a crucial role in identifying learning difficulties early on. By understanding dyscalculia, teachers can recognize signs and symptoms in students, allowing for timely intervention and support. Knowledge of dyscalculia enables teachers to tailor their teaching methods to accommodate students with this specific learning difficulty. By using differentiated instruction techniques, educators can provide alternative approaches and resources to help students grasp mathematical concepts.
We have designed the content so students will have the option to follow either Level 3, Level 5 and Level 7 full programme or the Level 7 top up programme.
The Level 3 comprises completing 2 modules and students will have 6 months to complete the course.
The Level 5 comprises completing 3 modules and students will have 1 year to complete the course.
The Level 7 full course comprises 4 modules and students will have 2 years to complete this course.
The Level 7 top-up is for people who already have a Level 5 qualification in Dyscalculia and have Accredited Teacher/Practitioner Dyscalculia (ATD/APD) and will exempt students from Module 1. Students will have 18 months to complete this course.
As well as the full level 7 and top up level 7 we are offering two conversion courses from January 2025
Level 7 conversion 1 is for people who already have level 5 in dyscalculia, an Associate Member British Dyslexia Association (AMBDA) qualification in Dyslexia and have an APC.
Level 7 conversion 2 is for people who already have an Associate Member British Dyslexia Association (AMBDA) qualification in dyslexia and have an APC.
These courses have been accredited by OCN4Learning. The courses are pending accreditation by the British Dyslexia Association.
The course has been written by Judy Hornigold, Steve Chinn, and Kate Davies and will be delivered by Judy and Kate, or one of their team members with guest lectures from a range of experts in the field. Steve will also join us on the zoom meetings.
