Child development assignment

Do you have a child born in 2020?

Would you like to be involved in the training of speech and language therapy students?

As part of their degree course, each speech and language therapy student has to observe and document a toddler’s development in their home setting over a period of time. This helps them to understand typical development, observe how parents interact with their children, and to develop professional communication skills.

Each year we look for 50 families to take part. The visits will start from late October and continue twice a term for just over a year.
