Schools use our online serviced packages, Language Link and Speech Link, to identify and support children with mild to moderate speech or language difficulties. The assessments, resources and support are designed by speech and language therapists and specialist teachers.

We know that the best indicator of how a child will cope with school is their understanding and use of spoken language. The standardised assessment identifies pupils with difficulties understanding core language skills. Over 160,000 children were screened in 2017/18 using our packages. Identified pupils receive a targeted programme of interventions. The classroom strategies, small group interventions and 1-1 supplementary teaching sessions make the best use of a TA's time and expertise.

Teacher engagement ratings and parent and pupil views support evidence of improvement, essential for Ofsted and the Pupil Premium.
