The Language,
Communication and Interaction Team
The Language, Communication and
Interaction Team helps primary and secondary school age children
overcome speech, language and communication
difficulties.
We work in
partnership with parents and carers as well as schools and early
years providers to:
- Support parents or carers of children aged four or under
who have severe communication difficulties, helping them to develop
skills to communicate confidently with their children
- Liaise with schools to ensure that young children with severe
communication difficulties make a successful transfer into school
or nursery
- Support children aged 5-16 who have severe and specific speech,
language and communication difficulties so that they have positive
experiences in school
- Liase with schools to ensure that children and young people
aged 5-16 on the autistic continuum have positive experiences in
schools
Schools normally contact the service directly about children who
are of school age, but parents of children aged four or under are
welcome to contact the service directly on 020 8430
4801.
