Lots of people do not know about DLD and so over the next few weeks, we are sharing some basic facts that are evidence-based. DLD (Developmental Language Disorder) is not something children can grow out of, but it does not mean they cannot thrive...#devlangdis #DLDday

Keen to learn more about behaviour change models and applying these to practice in SLT. (So I can learn more about maximising the impact of training). Can anyone share any experience or action research of this? Thank you!
