TRAIN THE TRAINER
Helping educators create
rich and stimulating learning environments
Speech Scotland™ can provide bespoke training programmes to all early years establishments. We can train early years educators to be able to identify when speech and language development is not age appropriate and teach them how to adapt the childs environment to create opportunities for communication. We can equip your staff with strategies to include children who have difficulty participating in structured tasks.
All programmes can be built around your specific needs, both in terms of time, and staff working patterns. Where appropriate we can include, follow up, check-ins and mentoring to ensure that our training is implemented in the most effective way.
