Early Years Talk Boost (West 12/11/2026)

This is an opportunity for practitioners to be trained in delivering an evidenced-based, targeted intervention for 3–4-year-olds that helps boost children’s language skills and narrow the gap between them and their peers. It is an opportunity to strengthen your team’s confidence, upskill your practice, and make a real difference to children’s communication development! 

The session is aimed at early years professionals working in settings with 3 – 4 year old children – PVI’s / nurseries / schools.

Please use and add your school/setting address when booking. 

Please note that there is a variety of in-person and virtual sessions so please ensure you are booked onto the correct one. 

To support delivery of the intervention following the training, a resource pack containing the materials needed to run the sessions is required. Settings within the Stevenage and Watford Best Start Family Hub areas are eligible to receive a fully funded resource pack, while settings outside these areas will need to purchase the pack separately, although Early Years SEND Funding may be available to support the cost. Please note that purchasing a resource pack is not a requirement for attending the training; however, the pack is needed if you wish to deliver the intervention afterwards.
