T2A Speech pathology in education: What does a whole school approach look like in primary, secondary and specialist settings across Australia? (F) – Continues T3A Speech pathologists, academics and educators will share their experiences and research during this forum. A whole school approach provides a continuum of support to different levels of student needs with schools identifying the appropriate support through analysing student data and monitoring student progress. The focus for a whole school approach is enhancing the performance of all students, including those with speech, language and communication needs in school settings. A whole school approach, through the Response to Intervention (RTI) model, is widely recognised as best practice internationally. The shift from only working with students individually to working within a whole school approach is a significant change to the way many speech pathologists support students with speech, language and communication needs. This forum will provide examples of speech pathologists and teachers working and researching collaboratively within whole-school approaches and give practical examples for participants to use in their own practices. During this forum, which will be chaired by Mary Gornik, National Advisor – Education, Early Childhood & Projects, there will be nine presentations (combination of invited and 12.30pm – 2.00pm Lunch sponsored by: 2.00pm – 3.30pm

A team driven approach and shared leadership John Culley Principal, Mahogany Rise Primary School, Frankston, VIC Australia John will share how his school, in response to low literacy levels and poor oral language skills, embarked upon an oral language strategy which has utilised speech pathologists working in all classrooms. This approach has developed over each year and now Mahogany Rise has three speech pathologists working in the school. The whole of school approach which Mahogany Rise has developed has become the cornerstone of its literacy program. The work with and alongside teachers in each classroom has revolutionised the work of teachers and speech pathologists.
