Plan
Answer:

Consult with the SENCo – the special educational needs coordinator for the early years setting

Plan language and communication development into everyday activities and the curriculum using the Stoke Speaks Out Staged Pathway.

Speak to parents/carers to raise awareness of the importance of communication and language, share ideas on how they can help their child to develop communication and language skills, strategies they could use and share the work you are doing so it can be mirrored at home.

Use the Early Years Graduated Response Toolkit

Make a referral to speech and language service Speech and language therapists will assess the child and develop and intervention plan with targets to work on. Liaise with the speech and language service about the interventions required and what you can do to support these. It is good practice to attend the childs speech and language appointment to find out about the intervention plan and how this should be implemented throughout their learning.

Entrust Early Years Area SENCo  can  provide advice and guidance to early years providers to support children with special educational needs and disabilities and  signposting to other agencies.
