“Bridge SLT Ltd has been an invaluable service to our school. The support, expertise and advice has ensured that all pupils working with the service have made remarkable progress with both their speech and language development. Bridge SLT have always been a phone call or email away and have responded to requests for support and advice promptly. The weekly 1:1 sessions working with the pupils and TA’s have shown how small manageable steps repeated regularly can make a massive impact. Bridge SLT have also worked alongside parents to provide them with ideas, support, advice and guidance on how best to encourage their child’s speech and language development.
Without this service our children, especially within the early years, would not be showing as much progress and the gap between themselves and their peers would be continuing to widen. We have been fortunate to have had ‘quality’ staff development training; ensuring that all Foundation Stage, Key Stage 1 teachers, TAs and the SEND team have been trained in delivering whole class and group support for language and speech. The training provided on a weekly basis for TA’s working 1:1 with pupils has not only up-skilled our staff but also given them the confidence to support pupils. Bridge SLT is a fantastic service for schools, individual pupils and parents.”
