Speech and Language needs can present in a range of ways. This may be in speech production, receptive language, expressive language or a mixture of all these areas.
Speech and Language Therapy Support
At Guston all pupils are screened with Language Link upon entry. This enables early identification of needs and suitable support to be put into place quickly.
Kent have adopted the Balanced System Framework to ensure that outcomes for children with Speech, Language and Communication Needs (SLCN) are improved. This system means that we no longer refer pupils, we will work with our link therapist to continually evaluate and improve our provision in school. Including targeted support where this is needed.
