In this workshop we’ll explore how speech, language and communication needs can affect maths learning. We’ll share the specific approaches and strategies we use in school to support your child and help them to develop their mathematical understanding.

The day will include:
- a tour of Meath School including brief visits to classes during their maths sessions
