Speech and language in children

Communication is a vital skill that all children need to learn. Without it they will not reach their full potential. Here at Talking Point we give parents and carers the information they need to help their children develop these skills. If you son or daughter has difficulty with speaking, they may need help, or they may struggle in nursery or school. With the right help with talking and listening, they can develop he skills they need.   If your child has difficulties with speech, language and communication, you'll find we've got lots of help and advice  and free resources for parents.
