With increasing numbers of nursery aged children in Wolverhampton being referred with speech and language delay, managers from the service, a local education authority and a university college joined forces to ensure a strategic, coordinated response. This included training one member of staff from each of the nurseries involved to provide a communication rich environment for the benefit all children. The team also produced a quick screen and a detailed screen to help staff identify those children who needed extra attention and / or referral to speech and language therapy.
