I am a SALT in Secondary and we screen for speech and language as a matter of course. We screen year 7’s using the TALC 2 and the communication trust tools. For year 9 I use a screen which I have devised plus the communication trust tools.
Quite often SLCN precedes language difficulties in literacy and maths and this way, with screening them all we can identify what intervention/advise /training is needed
Thanks
