The Speech and Language Therapist (SALT) works to promote the speech, language and communication development of our pupils, to ensure each achieves their full communicative potential. The ability to use language and communicate with others differs from individual to individual, and SALT works in partnership with the staff team to ensure that everyone here has an effective communication system. It is essential that pupils with speech, language and communication difficulties are not left to struggle. Helping pupils communicate more effectively, in turn, helps them to progress, not only at school, but also to participate in the wider world.
Here is an introduction to our SALT team:
