Speech Therapy in Schools — Service Details
We fit around your timetable, working with teachers and parents so progress carries on in class and at home.
Screening & Standardised Assessments
Assessments focus on classroom language: concepts, questions, following instructions, verb tenses and pronouns. Standard scores compare each pupil with their age group, and a support plan follows.
One-to-One Therapy at School
Your therapist visits on a set day of the week and sees pupils one to one in a quiet room. Pupils miss less of their lessons than they would for a clinic appointment.
Training for Teaching Staff
Specialist training shows teachers how to spot speech and language difficulties early and support affected pupils in the classroom.
Parents Involved
Parents receive activities and advice for home, with joint sessions at school. On request, the therapist writes a home programme to practise alongside school sessions.

What Our Patients Say
Very good experience. From the process to an appointment till the visit of the doctor. Even the afterwork with a detailed report. Appointment on time, good treatment. For sure, the right adress for visit of a doctor at home.
The service is impeccable...i was provided with an acupuncturist covering my area immediately and the practitioner was very professional and gave a medical report after each session. Also an invoice was provided which was acceptable by my insurance AXA PPP...
Great service all around. It was easy to arrange the appointment and make payment. Nurse came to my home to administer an infusion. Very friendly and professional nurse who was a pleasure to have in my home.
A very professional medical group. Responded immediately to my mums caring needs. We were desperate for a home visit and they answered promptly and allocated a very thorough doctor for us. Doctor made mum very relaxed because mum is usually a very nervous patient. I will recommend others to use them. Very satisfied with their services. Way to go Medelit. Well done!
The speech therapist who visited me at home was very attentive, patience and positive. She had time to address all of my questions and give me much needed guidance. Very pleased with the service and would highly recommend. Thanks, From a pleased mother.
An SLT assesses how a pupil understands and uses language, explains the nature and severity of the difficulty, and works out with teachers and parents how it affects school progress and everyday life. Therapy is then planned around that pupil.
Yes. Parents fill in a referral questionnaire and a consent form before their child sees a therapist.
