Autorenporträt
Carolyn Gelenter trained as an early years teacher in Sydney in the early 1980s. After completing her studies, she worked in long day care for children aged 0-5 years. She then gained employment with Community Child Care Co-op in Sydney, at the time an advocacy and training organisation for children's services. Carolyn moved to the UK in the early 1990s and has worked across primary and special needs in London. Working in both inner-city Sydney and London led her to want to understand and work more effectively with children with language needs. As a result, she completed a postgraduate certificate in Speech and Language Difficulties from Birmingham University in early 2000 and then went on to do an MSc in Joint Professional Practice at City University and the Institute of Education. She has worked for Westminster Local Authority since 1999 in various capacities and as an advisory teacher for SLCN (Speech, Language, Communication Needs) since 2004. In 2010, the advisory service was transferred to Westminster Special Schools, where she is now based. Nadine Prescott has worked as a Speech and Language Therapist for the past 11 years. She trained in New Zealand and started her career working in an urban rural mixed setting in the South Island of New Zealand. She moved to the UK in 2006 where she stayed for 7 years. She began her UK career working in innercity London mainstream primary schools and then took on the role of Principal Speech and Language Therapist for the Speech & Language Therapy Service to Mainstream Secondary Schools in Westminster. Currently Nadine works for the Ministry of Education in Christchurch, New Zealand where she works with children aged birth to 21 years with a range of communication needs. She has worked across a range of different settings, including early childhood centres, nurseries, kindergartens, rural play groups, clinics, children's homes and mainstream primary and secondary schools. Nadine's work as a speech and language therapist has always had a strong focus on collaboration with others and she enjoys being part of projects involving other professionals and parents. She especially enjoys working with secondary school-aged students as they can be a large part of this collaboration by contributing to their therapy targets and intervention. Belinda Riley is an experienced trainer and qualified social worker who has over 14 years' experience specialising in Child Protection and Safeguarding within Children and Families. She has extensive experience providing expert advice around safeguarding and child protection to a range of professionals within the Children's workforce. Belinda is originally from Perth in Western Australia but moved to London in 2002 where she continued her social work career. Through Belinda's consultancy work across a number of London Local Authorities, in particular as a Child Protection (CP) Advisor and CP Case Conference Chair, she recognised the need for specialist safeguarding and child protection training and as a result has designed, developed and implemented a number of bespoke training programmes, in particular within the Education sector. It was through this work that Belinda recognised that there was limited education for children around safety awareness. In 2012, Belinda completed the Protective Behaviours Foundation Course through Protective Behaviours UK.
