Hi,
My son has been having private speech therapy for about six months, an hour once a week. I have a proposed statement that does not quantify any SaLT with an actual therapist. How can I get them to include this?
The NHS SaLT actually did a fairly thorough assessment this week, she says his language skills are within the expected boundaries for his age although some areas his scored higher than average and others he scored lower than average and I don't think the assessment picked up some of his difficulties, especially when in an educational setting. The NHS SalT said she could not/would not quantify how much time with a therapist he should have.
Has anyone been able to get speech therapy put on the statement even though the NHS has pretty much washed their hands?
Thanks
