About Diana Rigg:

Director and Editor Diana Rigg founded PLD because she recognised a large gap in the time it took for research findings to make it into practice in the classroom. With a Master’s degree in Education and Speech Pathology, Diana was convinced she could help close that gap, offering assistance to parents, teachers, and school systems looking for help in promoting literacy to the young people in their lives. With extensive experience as a Classroom Teacher, Specialist Literacy Teacher and Speech Pathologist, Diana understood what was needed. Drawing on over 15 years as a Professional Educational Consultant, Diana assembled a passionate team of Speech Pathologists, Occupational Therapists and Designers to help her translate the latest research and best practices from around the world into attractive, easy to use resources for both the home and classroom setting. Diana is active in both consultancy and publishing. Understanding the challenges of a classroom puts Diana in the perfect positions to deliver quality products aligned with school learning systems. Extensive experience in consultancy allows her to develop products suitable for use in the home either as supplemental lessons or as part of a home schooling curriculum.

Protective Education/Behaviours | Everything you need to know and more

Monday 5th October | 2.45pm - 4.45pm

Join us for a special workshop with Holly-Ann Martin from Safe 4 Kids!

Holly-ann will show you how to teach protective behaviours and body safety across the whole curriculum and integrate it into all learning areas. The idea is not to make this another subject you have to teach! Once you and your students have internalised the language and concepts, you will find incidental teaching moments will arise throughout the year. This incidental teaching of the program is the most meaningful and powerful way students learn and reinforces the critical concepts of protective education.
