Please see below details of our universal training sessions for 2024.

These sessions are free of charge for professionals working in settings within Coventry. Please note that due to capacity, a maximum of 2 attendees per setting are able to attend each of our training sessions.

Schools and settings can buy in additional speech, language and communication training from the NHS from Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Partnership Trust (CWPT).

This could be around the identification and intervention for nursery or school age children, to learn Makaton signs or many more areas of speech and language support.
