SEND Outreach Service- Developmental Language Disorder Team

SEND Outreach Service- Developmental Language Disorder Team

We are a multidisciplinary team, working as part of the SEND Outreach Service. 

There are Speech Therapists, Educational Psychologists, a Specialist Speech, Language and Communication Teacher and Learning Support Assistants working in the DLD Team. We work with children who have a diagnosis of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and/or a Speech Sound Disorder (SSD), who have already accessed some therapy from the NHS Speech and Language Therapy Service. We provide a detailed assessment and then, for those children who are felt to be appropriate, a period of intensive intervention support, working towards targets set to progress their speech and/or language skills. Referral to this team is made by school on the recommendation of a Speech Therapist and the child will have already been on the NHS DLD Pathway/SSD Pathway.
