It was a deep honour to engage in a conversation with Eamon about his Chapter, The Role of Speech Pathology in Education: My Journey. Eamon generously shared the following points and more: - His career path (work in early intervention, education, and his current position at La Trobe University - an Academic Intern for Science of Language and Reading Lab) - The moment he was introduced to the world of literacy and the navigation of a speech pathologist's role within that - The subjects he is teaching at La Trobe and research he is supervising. An additional note from Eamon included: A quote from Tiffany Hogan’s 2025 AIM Institute Research to Practice Symposium presentation – “it’s the role of the system to create the conditions for evidence based practice to occur”. I think this is obviously true of how the system can support professionals within schools to experience success, but also the professionals providing services to schools (e.g. speech pathologists). We need to think about how speech pathology services can be effective within an MTSS framework of service delivery. We want to set speech pathologists up to be collaborative, effective and efficient in their work within Education.
