Becoming a Speech and Language Champion

How Many Children Are Struggling Because We Missed the Language Behind the Learning?

Language and communication are the foundation of every classroom experience. They influence learning, behaviour, friendships, emotional wellbeing, participation and independence. Yet many children with speech, language and communication needs remain unidentified or unsupported until difficulties become more significant and begin to impact academic achievement and emotional wellbeing.

Join Insights Psychology and Louise Dawson Inclusion Training for an engaging and practical professional learning event focused on helping schools create language-rich environments where every learner can thrive.

This session is designed for school leaders and inclusion professionals who want to strengthen speech, language and communication support across their setting and develop more effective pathways for identifying and supporting students’ needs.
