My favourite training to date. This was a really well chosen topic and Ali's training style really suited our team. Huge thanks to everyone involved in setting this up. I hope we can continue our learning with Ali. I feel really enthusiastic about working with GLP's moving forward where as before this was an area I was definitely under confident in.
Genuinely so interesting, I wish every SLT had the privilege of hearing Ali speak - thank you!
That was one of my favourite CPD days!
Was lovely to have someone so knowledgeable come in to talk to us about this exciting clinical area of GLP.
Ali is so passionate about her work. She brings such an energy: it is infectious.
I was not confident about introducing AAC to the autistic children that I work with, but Ali has given me pointers and resources and now I can't wait to get stuck in.
Feeling enlightened and empowered after attending fantastic GLP training
yesterday delivered by specialst speech and language therapist Ali
Battye. Our team attended along with some of the teaching staff we work
with and parents we support. We feel priveleged to have benefitted from
Ali's knowledge and experience for a whole day!
The learning around neurodiversity affirming practice, natural language
acquisition, identifying children who are GLPs and assessment and
support for these children will be invaluable to our practice going
forward.
The training was fascinating, motivating and practical, with take away
strategies that we can put to work straight away.
We feel that GLP should be part of core training for all speech and
language therapists and teaching staff supporting GLP learners. We can
highly recommend Ali's training.
