Progression Tools

The Progression Tools cover ages 3 to 18 and aim to support teachers, teaching assistants, SENCos and other staff to identify young people who may be struggling to develop their speech, language, and communication skills. They can also be used to track the progression of these skills over time or following interventions.

These Tools are based on theoretical information on typical language development and aim to provide an efficient and quick way of identifying children who may have challenges in talking and understanding words.
