Developmental Language Disorder for Primary School Teachers

DLD affects 7.5% of children – that means 2 children in every class of 30. Learn about how you can help these young people in your class.

This 2 hour workshop is for primary school teachers who would like to learn more about Developmental Language Disorder.

The workshop will cover:

• Typical Language Development in the Early Years
• Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) – what it is, what it looks like in a classroom and how we diagnose it
• DLD and its connection to literacy (and therefore every other subject)
• Supporting a child with DLD in a mainstream classroom
• Q & A Opportunities

There will be a brief break in the workshop at approximately 3 pm – afternoon tea will be provided.
