School Services

Having a speech therapist in school every week has really enhanced our inclusion team. We now have expert advice ‘on-tap’ and this not only supports the children but also parents and staff in their everyday work with the children. The therapist uses her time very efficiently and ensures that all of our high needs children have regular therapy sessions as well as thorough reviews and reports to support the SEN review process. The therapist also sees other children in school and models and observes staff delivering interventions to offer advice and suggest resources. As a SENDCo I can honestly say that having WLSLT as part of the inclusion team has lessened my load, increased my knowledge and expertise and is worth every penny that we pay!

We have been fortunate enough to have WLSLT working in school with our children for the last 5 years. The therapist’s experience and expertise have been invaluable as she is both highly professional and approachable. Not only does she assess the children and produce appropriate interventions with relevant resources, she is always keen to train staff, in delivering the sessions and monitoring this regularly too. The therapist has provided whole school training as well as hosting a drop in coffee morning for parents and she has helped us establish varying interventions. She is passionate about enabling communication for all and sharing her knowledge and experience with children, staff and parents. On a personal level I have learned so much from WLSLT. We have been able to recommend them to many other schools over the years, all of which have bought into the service and have been very satisfied with the outstanding provision they have received.

Commissioning services from West London Speech and Language Therapy was one of the best decisions I have ever made as a SENDCo. The resource is invaluable in helping our staff, parents and most of all, our pupils. The team at WLSLT work flexibly to meet the school’s needs and the impact the therapist has is spoken about very highly from all within our school community.

Thank you for this and for all your hard work, commitment and professionalism. It has been a pleasure to work with someone as conscientious and accommodating as you. Good luck for the future. I am sure you will be absolutely brilliant wherever you go because you are!

The West London Speech and Language Service have been an invaluable resource that we have invested in over the last year. The professionalism and expertise of the therapists we have worked with have been outstanding and have played a crucial role in supporting our most vulnerable pupils in times of transition and uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I am so grateful for the support and honestly don’t know what I would have done without their support over the last year. THANK YOU TEAM!
