In January, 60 or so specialist SLCN teachers met online to talk about how they support their students. The three themes were auditory memory, narrative and social, emotional and mental health (SEMH). The links lead to summaries from the breakout room discussions. They reflect individuals’ practice, and are not endorsed by NAPLIC. Worth a look, as there is lots to ponder.
An online CPD event with eight speakers presenting lightning talks was held on 11/7/20. Together the presenters showed the diversity of the approaches that speech and language therapists and SLCN specialist teachers are using to respond to the pandemic. Also the NAPLIC AGM at the end.
