This is a workshop for staff working with children in Early Years. Lift off to Language is a locally developed programme by Speech and Language Therapists in Bedfordshire and Luton. Practitioners are trained and supported by the Speech and Language Therapists to run language booster groups aimed at the 2 year olds within their setting.
After the initial training session, practitioners are expected to run the group in their setting within the next term. A Speech and Language Therapist will visit your setting to support you with a least one of these sessions. You will be signed off as a ‘Lift Off to Language setting’ when this has been completed.
Cost: FREE (includes pack of session plans and supporting evidence)
