Communication in the Classroom

Communication In The Classroom is a practical resource for Speech and Language Therapists working in secondary schools, and for secondary SENCOs who wish to raise the profile of communication disorders within a school. It includes 6 workshops for secondary teachers/support staff and 3 workshops for secondary students.  The workshops are based around powerful practical activities in which participants experience for themselves what it is like to have communication difficulties.  Teachers learn about a range of strategies they could implement in the classroom to support pupils with SLCN.  Students are encouraged to accept and understand peers who struggle with communication.
