We held a Speech Therapy Department Share & Learn day today - what an absolute joy to be surrounded by such talented, ambitious & thoughtful colleagues. Super important moment in coming together & celebrating each other's achievements 💙 Do you have department days too?

This is a really accessible listen too! You don't have to be a teacher to understand or be affected by the content

In case it's useful, here's a thread of useful #SLP #SLT related things I've found useful (as an #SLPeeps with an interest in child language and literacy), including starter packs and feeds. Also includes some related fields (cognitive science, education).
