Nursery Letter Early Talk Boost Program

[DiamondKim]

Just after some advice really
I've just received a letter from my ds nursery about an early talk boost program. I haven't had a chance to talk to ds teacher yet as I'm at work. I'm just wondering has anyone elses child been part of this program? When I have googled it it says it's for children with delayed speech, and teaching them to talk in sentences. My ds is a very very good talker and always speaks in sentences so I am a bit confused as to why he has been put forward for this program. I am going to be stressing about it all night now until I can speak to his teacher tomorrow morning.
My ds grandmother was a nursery nurse until just a few years ago and she has always said how fantastic his speech is so I feel if there was a problem then she would of mentioned it, we have a very close relationship and I've always said to her if she thinks there is anything that could be a problem to tell me so I can help my ds.
Please help to put my mind at rest.

Does the letter have his name on it? It might be a mistake. Or I wonder if everyone in class got one.

The best person to put your mind at ease will be the teacher.

It could be that he's shy in nursery so doesn't talk much, or he doesn't say some sounds as correctly as he should for his age. It could be that he can talk really well,but is actually lacking communication skills like listening,processing the information given etc.

If he needs it then it sounds like a good idea.
If he doesn't,then it's a bit of a waste ,but in no way detrimental to him.

Please don't worry regardless, as in the absence if any other worries even a speech delay doesn't mean much, and more often than not it corrects itself in time.

DD was quite behind in preschool and nursery. Started catching up in reception. By y3 no one would even know she had a bit of a tricky start and is doing great in all subjects.

The letter has his name on so its definitely not a mistake. Hes made a few little friends at school and seems to be settling in really well, he always comes home and tells me all about his day and who hes played with and what hes done. Ive heard him chatting away to his teacher on the way into nursery as well. Hes very good at communicating, so its possibly just the listening side of it. I'm more than happy for him to get any help he needs but I just cant seem to get my head around it saying it's for kids with delayed speech when I know he doesnt have delayed speech. I know it's only the teacher who can tell me properly what it's for but like I said I'm going to be stressing all night now. ☹

Oh and I'm glad your DD is doing great at school x

Honestly, don't stress, easier said than done i know. You think he's doing well so he probably is. See what the teacher has to say , my reply was more trying to reassure you that even if he does need it it isn't anything "bad" or to "worry" about. He's still so little that even 6 months can make a massive difference.

The important thing is that he made some friends, is happy and having fun there and communicating that to you and he's settled well.

Thanks again. I'm trying not to think of it as a bad thing because any help he needs I'd much rather he got as soon as possible.
I'll try not to stress too much, it's only one night then I can speak to his teacher and find out what's going on.
