- What is
communication?
In the Department of Education we have a basic understanding that we all share responsibility for student success. Future student success is based upon the premise that well developed communication skills are the foundation for future academic learning. The vision of the speech/language pathology program is that we work collaboratively with school teams and families, to support all students at various levels of their communication development, so that they can communicate their thoughts, ideas and feelings with other people.
