Speech and language therapy: communication is key to development

Our speech-language therapists work on speech, language and learning difficulties so every child can express themselves, understand and take part.

Speech and language therapy
Speech & language
What it is

How we help

Speaking, understanding what others say, telling what happened, following an instruction or reading aloud are different skills, and a child may struggle with just one of them. Speech therapy identifies which one and works on it through play, routines and age-appropriate materials.

It is delivered by graduates in Human Communication and in Special Education specializing in hearing and language. Beyond speech and language, the team works on voice, swallowing and cognitive rehabilitation, and holds certification in electrical stimulation for dysphagia.

Who is it for?

It can help if your child…

  • Children who talk little or late for their age
  • Difficulty pronouncing sounds or words
  • Trouble understanding instructions or building sentences
  • Stuttering or a persistently hoarse voice
  • Autistic children who need support to communicate
  • Difficulty swallowing or chewing
Step by step

How we work

Language assessment

We measure comprehension, expression, articulation, voice and social language to pinpoint the difficulty.

Tailored goals

We set concrete goals—for example, asking for things with three-word phrases—and how we will measure them.

Play-based sessions

We work with play, stories, picture cards and routines, at the child’s pace.

Home and school

You get activities for home, and we guide teachers so practice continues outside the therapy room.

FAQ

Common questions

When should I worry if my child isn’t talking?

If there are no words at 18 months, no two-word phrases at 2 years, or others can’t understand them at 3, an assessment is a good idea. Early help is always better than waiting.

How many sessions will my child need?

It depends on the difficulty and the child’s age. After the assessment we give you a plan with goals and review progress with you regularly.

Do parents take part?

Yes. Practice at home makes the difference, so at the end of each stage we explain what to do and how.
