Teachers should develop pupils’ spoken language, reading, writing and vocabulary as integral aspects of the teaching of every subject as good understanding of language provides access to the whole curriculum. Age-appropriate language skills provide the essential foundation for success in all subjects.
For children with SLCN we can provide:
- Detailed assessment of communication skills
- Detailed or summary report
- Written strategies, linked to the curriculum
- Therapy programmes – designed to be implemented by Teaching Assistants
- Direct therapy delivered by a Speech and Language Therapist
- Training for ICAN intervention e.g. Talk Boost
- Bespoke training for teachers related to individual communication difficulties
