Services for Education Settings

slt4me provide integrated Speech and Language Therapy into nurseries settings as well as

mainstream and special schools across Sussex, Brighton and Hove and surrounding areas.

​

Do any of the children in your setting…

• find it hard to make friends or to play with others?

• avoid eye contact?

• struggle to follow instructions or understand what is being said to them (by peers/adults)?

• have difficulties following the rules in games or in the classroom?

• not use any words or only use a small number of words?

• communicate physically instead of verbally?

• find it difficult to say certain words? 

• use shorter sentences than their peers?

• say inappropriate things to others?

• get stuck on words?

• have difficulty making certain speech sounds?

• struggle to be understood (due to intelligibility issues or difficulties putting their ideas together)?    

​

If you have concerns that any of the children in your setting have difficulties with any of the areas

mentioned above then please do consider contacting us to discuss whether a Speech and Language Therapy assessment is appropriate. Please remember that all conversations about specific children

require consent to be gathered from the child/young person’s parents/carers.
