Language Intervention in the Early Years (LIVELY) was a randomised control trial comparing an adapted version of the Derbyshire Language Scheme (A-DLS) and the Building Early Sentences Therapy (BEST) led by Professor Cristina McKean, Newcastle University.

My role was to ensure fidelity in the delivery of the BEST intervention, and to advise and oversee the development of adaptations of the BEST into Languages Other Than English (LOTE).
