Course Overview

Clinical Placements Students undertake both weekly and block placements during the course. This allows for the development of a broad range of clinical skills. We have newly refurbished dedicated in-house clinic facilities which host clinics for adults with acquired neurological difficulties and for children with developmental communication difficulties.

All of our clinical staff are speech and language therapists, some of whom offer placements in our in-house clinic. The clinical journey starts in year 1 where you gain experience working with children and older adults and begin your clinical placements, building on these skills further in years 2 and 3.
