What is Speech and Language Therapy?
Speech and language therapy supports children and young people to develop their communication skills, helping them express themselves, understand others, and communicate with confidence.
Why is it Important?
Communication plays an important role in every part of a child’s development, from making friends and taking part in conversations to understanding what is happening around them and accessing learning. Speech and language therapy can provide tailored support for children who find aspects of communication difficult, helping them develop practical strategies and skills that can make everyday interactions easier and more enjoyable.
