Supporting Early Language Development Programme - Penzance
Multiple dates and times

Description
Key Aims
For the purposes of this programme, we will concentrate on the classroom/school environment, with a focus on providing:
• An understanding of a working model of language through which to observe children’s language development through the primary years, and beyond.
• An understanding of the stages of ‘typical’ language development concentrating on the expected milestones that occur during primary years (ages 4 to 11).
• Practical classroom skills and techniques for quality first teaching in YR and KS1 that will create skilled and confident classroom practitioners and improve outcomes for all children.
• Ways and tools to identify children who may not be developing language skills as expected and ways to support those children in class.
