My five-year-old May have verbal dyspraxia (awaiting referrals but two SAL therapists agree that his has an expressive language disorder with dyspraxic traits)...
Does anyone have experience of this?
He currently has 3x30mins at school with a LSA, NHS therapist sets targets twice a term and I take him to private therapist 1h a week plus homework. He is still making very slow progress. How much speech therapy do you think I should be doing? Should we do more?
Any advice on what helped? And whether I can get a EHCP now or wait until he is diagnosed (school are crap).
Do you think an intense course with a therapist would help?
I would really appreciate some advice!
