🎭 Stephen of @wordaware.bsky.social is very upset💔. Send cake🍰 and hugs, 🦋 #bskySPEECHIES, and, 🇬🇧 Department for Education, say sorry, and fix your funding model £ to include #TheForgottenMillion #neurodiverse children and young people with #DevLangDis #equity @radld.bsky.social @naplic.bsky.social

Just out - Open Access #DevLangDis #DLD Leitão, S., St Clair, M., Botting, N., Gibson, J. L., & Jackson, E. (2025). “They don't realise how hard he has to try every day”: The rewards and challenges of parenting a child with developmental language disorder. IJLCD . dx.doi.org/10.1111/1460...

If the neurodivergence taskforce wants to make schools better for neurodivergent children, why aren’t the 1 million children with Developmental Language Disorder part of the conversation?😣 This is totally unacceptable! Don't you agree, Department for Education? #TheForgottenMillion

"Autism has always been part of the human community. The reason we don’t think so is because autistic people were kept behind the walls of institutions for most of the 20th century, or they got no diagnosis at all." Per @stevesilberman.bsky.social www.lionsroar.com/neurotribes-... #neurodiversity

Politics stuff... as you might know, has become a push factor for many Hongkongers. Many are moving to the UK and bringing their kids along. Excited & grateful to have the opportunity to work on multilingual assessments, extending the work of colleagues in HK! #DevLangDis #SLPeeps #bskyspeechies

In addition to our flyers on DLD (Developmental Language Disorder) for teachers and parents, we have now created some for activity leaders and coaches. All flyers downloadable from: www.moorhouseinstitute.com/dld-resources/ #DevLangDis #SLCN

For #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek we’ve made a video for mental health practitioners about Developmental Language Disorder! #DevLangDis affects 7% of ppl, and is over represented in MH settings. We introduce DLD and have tips for making MH support more accessible. Please share! youtu.be/Ko6sFea3v0w?...

This is the heartbreaking reality for Arun and so many of the #2in30 children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) in the UK. Say it with us🗣: You can't solve the problems in the SEND system without increasing support for children struggling to talk and understand words!
