EARLY INTERVENTION<br />
Why use The WellComm Toolkit?<br />
• The WellComm Toolkit is suitable for use by<br />
non-specialist early years professionals in identifying<br />
children who need immediate referral and support<br />
Example score sheets<br />
• The WellComm Toolkit provides tailored intervention activities that can<br />
help improve language skills, whatever the age or ability of the child<br />
• It is ideal for screening children’s communication skills on entrance to<br />
school at 5 years of age<br />
• The assessment monitors the levels of children’s speech and language<br />
as interventions are introduced, allowing the evaluation of their impact<br />
• It ensures each child receives the exact support and intervention<br />
he/she needs<br />
• It helps reduce unnecessary and costly referrals to local speech and<br />
language therapy services<br />
• The WellComm Toolkit has been tested and trialled on over 7,000<br />

Difficulties with language can have catastrophic and long-term effects<br />
on the progression of a child’s overall development. It is vital that<br />
language skills are frequently monitored so that any problems or<br />
delays can be identified and addressed as early as possible. The<br />
WellComm Toolkit is an ideal screening tool that can be used prior to<br />
any of GL Assessment’s literacy <strong>assessments</strong>, such as New Group<br />
Reading Test (pages 24–27) and the York Assessment of<br />
Reading for Comprehension: Primary and Secondary (pages<br />
28–31) to identify young children at risk of developing delayed<br />
language skills.<br />
