Speech and language therapy

Even if your child does not or cannot use speech, they can still have access to other forms of alternative communication from an SLT. These include electronic communication devices, symbolised communication books/PECS, Makaton/BSL or a letter board.

The amount of input your child will get will depend on assessed needs.

Yes, that is true. The amount of input should always be based on child's needs. But what if the needs are high and the input is low? The child will never make progress even if she/he has potential.
