Joined @naplic.bsky.social's journal club yesterday hosted with @cltt.bsky.social 💭 A thought-provoking discussion on #DevLangDis intervention! The speakers convinced me: nursery teaching should be done by SLTs. Observations, facilitation, elicitation. - thoughts? 🧐 #BSkySpeechies

Another reason why we need more diagnosis of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). And greater awareness. Although this applies to justice, it shows how perceptions can alter when others know of a person's needs. #DevLangDis

📣 New paper alert! Within a mock jury study, we found that disclosing a defendant's #DevLangDis status related to fewer guilty verdicts and less harsher sentencing when found guilty. #openaccess onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

We agree with Maddy. Too often the voices of children are missing from conversations around child poverty. In the @newstatesman.com we set out why children have got to have their say in the UK Government's Child Poverty Strategy. Read the full article: bit.ly/4dwA9Ki

Good TES interview with #oracy guru Prof Neil Mercer: ‘In 2023 Sir Keir Starmer pledged that the Labour Party would weave oracy through the curriculum. Yet when the interim report was published, oracy was not mentioned at all. So, is Labour really serious about change?’ www.tes.com/magazine/ana...
