What Elklan does is unique. We're the only organisation offering a choice of accredited online courses and local face-to-face courses tailored for different professional roles and child age groups. Elklan trains education and early years practitioners and parents to use practical evidence based strategies which help children with speech, language and communication needs (SLCN). They will also help ALL children learn as language is fundamental to learning and thinking. The new Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) code of practice in England now expects teachers to be responsible for every child’s learning in the classroom and this now includes communication! Developed from the most current research Elklan training supports staff to meet these demands as well as those posed by Ofsted inspections. We can • Improve early identification and support of pupils with SLCN. • Deliver on the Quality First teaching agenda • Improve differentiation of language focused activities across the curriculum • Improve your interaction with your children • Support you in gaining a nationally recognise qualification All our courses are accredited through apt awards (formerly Open College Network) and are on the Qualifications and Curriculum Framework. When you work with us we will upskill your staff and give you a new way of working with all children but especially those with SLCN.
