LLLI is high quality and internationally researched training that provides guidance for Early Years practitioners in promoting social, language and literacy learning in Early Years settings.
“A practical, research-based approach to promoting children’s social, language and emergent literacy development during everyday interactions… with the most current research in the field…geared to children at the earliest of stages of non-verbal communication development to those who can speak in complex sentences” – LLLI, The Hanen Programme
LLLI provides you with research and evidence-based practical strategies for:
- Promoting every child’s language development using natural everyday activities, routines and play
- Becoming attuned to children’s interests so you can follow their lead, which is known to foster language development
- Adjusting the way you talk to help children develop more advanced language skills
- Promoting interaction among the children themselves
- Facilitating language-learning in pretend play
- Fostering emergent literacy skills
LLLI offers an approach which enhances the everyday language learning environment for every child in the setting, including children with Speech, Language and Communication Needs, those with or at risk of delay, second-language learners and typically developing children.
Recruitment has now closed but we hope to add more programmes in January 2024.
