Communication & Interaction Difficulties

My child has communication and interaction difficulties.

What is it?

Children and young people with speech, language and communication needs have difficulty in communicating with others. This may be because they have difficulty saying what they want to, understanding what is being said to them or they do not understand or use social rules of communication.

What does it look like?

  • Children may have:

  • A stammer

  • Difficulty expressing themselves and making themselves understood

  • Difficulty understanding language or following instructions

  • Lack of understanding of social situations

  • Lack of imagination

  • A diagnosis of Autism (ASD)

What can Percy Shurmer offer?

In liaison with class teachers and parents, the SENCo will support staff to provide the most appropriate level of support.
