Webinar: Supporting Language and Communication Skills in the Early Years

There have been growing concerns about the number of children starting school in the UK with poor language skills, particularly children in areas of social disadvantage. Early identification of language difficulties and the implementation of evidence based intervention form a pivotal role in tackling this issue. But how do we know what works? In this webinar, we draw on our work for Better Start Bradford to discuss the opportunities and challenges faced when delivering and evaluating a language intervention programme. We discussed: • the programmes we introduced to support children’s language development, • some of the challenges we faced in evaluating these programmes and how we tackled these, • and how the programmes were adapted in response to COVID 19 Timecodes: 0.00 Introduction to Better Start Bradford and evaluating Talking Together, a home based language intervention 53:06 Q&A 60:28 Better Start Imagine (bringing books to families) and ICAN Early Talk, CPD for Early Years Practitioners ; 95:45 Q&A You can download the slides from this webinar here: https://www.niesr.ac.uk/events/suppor...
