Preschool Screenings at Speak, Learn and Grow Speech Pathology Services

What are Preschool Screenings?

Many parents wonder if their child’s speech and language skills are at the right level for their age. A great way to determine if your child is developing these skills appropriately is to complete a Screening Assessment.

Speak, Learn and Grow Speech Pathology Services provides Speech and Language screenings to preschools in our local area.

It takes approximately 15 minutes and cost $15 per pre-schooler. The screener looks at how children are saying words and sounds, as well as their comprehension and expression of language. Each parent receives a short report indicating if their child’s performance is what is expected for their age, or if further evaluation is recommended.

This is a great service that you are able to offer the children at your preschool centre. Please contact us to arrange a preschool screening session.
