Service Description

Available to practitioners who have completed Tier 1 training. You will have 5 pre-recorded videos with content to watch first (for each of the 5 sessions). There will be 4 hours ( 2 x 2 hour virtual sessions) to cover the interactive content with a slant towards the childminder context. Tier 2 training provides practitioners with an in-depth understanding of the 5 key aspects of speech, language and communication development and support in babies and young children. Practitioners will have a greater understanding of how these aspects typically develop and will be given opportunities to explore what happens when development is not progressing as expected. Strategies which optimise the development of excellent speech, language and communication skills will be explained and reinforced through practical activities and reflection tasks. Practitioners will be provided with knowledge and tools to identify and support speech, language and communication difficulties. Sessions include video reflection and self directed learning to ensure practitioners are providing excellent interaction opportunities with the children in their setting.
