@APinchofSaLTs I use the app OLIO where you can give away things for free - someone will have a use for them!

Planning doesn't always have to be a chore, as one of our speech and language therapists, Jess found when creating this super fun table football game with a Year 8 pupil at @WandleValleyA! Time to get practising 🌟#mysltday #CognusAndProud

It’s only 12pm but my day is already made. A student just stopped me mid-question to ask “Excuse me Miss, sorry to interrupt but... are you posh?” 😂 #mySLTday

[Jessica Wood @JessicaWoodSaLT]

Interesting article in the @rcslt_bulletin about supporting comprehension of word problems in Maths - something a lot of my students struggle with even if Maths is a relative strength for them. Hope to hear more about the #ReadingForMaths programme in future! 📈📐

[Jessica Wood @JessicaWoodSaLT]

11 months and a lot of video calls later!

[Cognus Therapies @CognusTherapies]

A huge congratulations to Jessica for completing her NQP Competencies with @CognusLimited this year 🌟 @SuttonCouncil @RCSLT

If you work in #youthjustice then please do not inadvertently overlook a young person’s language abilities. In our study whether or not the yp had developmental language disorder held the greatest predictive power of future offending. https://t.co/xI8Mkw49D7

[Leo Morgan @LeoRMorgan]

@moosknows Diversity in the profession is needed. But men aren't the ones who actually have disproportioate barriers in the university and NHS settings to entering the profession and succeeding. @RCSLT could be more unequivocal in saying this rather than a generic Diversity problem.

[SLTea Time @SLTeaTime]

EP2 - Ethnic Diversity in SLT: The Story ☕️
Available on YouTube and Spotify 17/07

In this episode we explore the historical issue of lack of diversity within the SLT profession, how this impacts the inequitable representation and continue to share our personal experiences⭐️
