Communication and Interaction
Children and young people might:
- struggle to talk or say what they want to
- find it hard to understand what other people are saying
- find conversations and play confusing or challenging
Children who have social and communication difficulties are supported through our SENDCo, Speech and Language Therapist and through quality first teaching within the classroom.
