Speech & Language Therapy

Speech and language therapy supports children in developing functional communication. All therapy is individually tailored and takes into account communication skills, sensory processing, attention, emotional regulation and environmental demands.

How We Help

We support children who experience speech, language, and communication differences to:

Communicate their needs, thoughts and feelings in ways that are effective and authentic for them
Develop social communication and interaction skills
Build confidence and self-understanding
Support emotional regulation through improved communication and shared understanding
Develop speech clarity and intelligibility
Receive specialist support for stammering

What is Speech and Language Delay?

A delay in developing speech and language is common, occurring in approximately 1 in 20 children
Frustrated behaviour or "tantrums" can result if a child is not able to articulate their needs or how they are feeling, leading to anxiety or isolation from peers
This can have a further impact on learning and achievement
If this persists, particularly after 2 years of age, an assessment to look further at the cause may be indicated — e.g. autism, hearing difficulty or learning difficulty
