Thank you!!!!{{{{big hug}}}}}
I feel I have a big task ahead then.
Take part 3 for Communication.
Objectives.
To enable Amelia to develop her speech & language skills to her full potential/.
Education Provision to meet needs & objectives.
Firstly I didn't realise this was a seperate section, it is all sort of clumped inbetween Objectives and strategies. It reads:
A reqs a supportive ed. environment, which provides for her individual needs by differentiating the curriculum as approprite.
All those working with A must be fuly aware of the difficulties that she encounters and of the appropriate strategies that can meet her needs.
All staff working with A should have experience & expertise in supporting children with her difficulties.
A must have access to the full range of the Nat Curriculum suitable differentiated to take into account her identified needs.
A urrently attends a MS infant school, which caters for children between 4-7 years. A is in a mixed ability class where she benefits from pastoral support provided through the class teacher should she need to access this.
Whilst in a MS school in addition to the support the school will provide through SA+, she should access 15 hours TA support per week, either on a 1-1 or small group basis. The person appointed would work under the direction of the SENCO, who will be responsible for ensuring that the appropriate programmes of intervention are implented and monitored.
A has a broad & differentiated ed. and she wil follow a challenging Curriculum that develops her potential. Parents are involved & supported in A's learning process by the school.
Strategies.
- Communication
school seek advice from SALT re; progs to develop A's expressive lang skills.
A to have daily use of signs/gestures. Staff should use Signalong to support her experessive lang.
Must have acess to visual symbols/pictures to aid her. A must have positive visual feedback for her attemps at communication.
A must have opportunities to engage in a variety of play activites that encourage comm. and develop more word knowledge by playing games such as "I Spy."
(!!!!!!!!!!!!!) So how often does she get to see a proffessional SALT, and who provides this "specialist" input that we are currently paying £40 per hour for. Who is going to carry it out withing the school and how often?
Every aspect of her needs seems rather vague and not worth the paper it typed on. It just seems they have copied out chunks of the EPs report.
