The SEND system is already failing so many children. Cutting funding is not the answer!

24% of children with SEND have speech and language challenges – ensuring they get the right support is key to fixing this broken system🤝

Early intervention is key🔑

Language interventions must be available as early as possible, not waiting until children start school. Schools and nurseries should have the freedom to pick a language intervention that works for them.

Sigh... So much talk about improving the education system for ALL pupils, yet no mention of the wellbeing of the 1.9 million children struggling to talk and understand words😓

We have some ideas about what can be done –@UKLabour, chat with us! 💡

Thank you Jess Asato MP (@Jess4Lowestoft) for visiting The Limes Primary Academy to watch the fantastic team deliver Early Talk Boost, one of our targeted programmes!🐯💬

Many thanks to Mrs Evans and Miss Hassock, and to Stacy Owens, the #EarlyYears lead for giving the tour! 🌟

We must remember what we’re saving by spending on children with SEND. We can help reduce their need for mental health services, unemployment benefits and we’re massively improving their lives.

[Speech and Language UK @SpeechAndLangUK]

Children with speech and language challenges are doing worse while their peers do better in #EarlyYears. The government needs to do more to support these children. 🗣

🚨 To tackle child poverty, we need to recognise and maximise the contribution of speech, language, and communication.

🗣️ So, today @RCSLT's brought together 40+ organisations calling on @DWPgovuk & @educationgovuk to do that.

🙏🏻 We're very grateful for such amazing support.

Great to see @Jane_Harris77's comment featured in this article!

Whole-system reform is a must💥 The report from @NAOorguk shows why the government needs to put the 1.9 million children with speech and language challenges first!

[Speech and Language UK @SpeechAndLangUK]

Congratulations to Paisley, our wonderful SLT apprentice, on this incredible achievement!

The staff and pupils at @DawnHouseSchool are so thrilled to see you recognised in this way🌟 You deserve it! #RCSLTAwards

[Speech and Language UK @SpeechAndLangUK]

You can’t solve the problems in the SEND system without increasing support for children struggling with talking and understanding words.

A choice of early language interventions that close the gap for half of children and identify those who need extra support is crucial!

[Speech and Language UK @SpeechAndLangUK]

Don't miss out on this important session!

Our Lead Speech and Language Advisor, Amy, will explore the impact struggling to talk and understand words can have and how you can support pupils in your class! ⬇️
