Two more settings achieve 'Communication Friendly Award'
[ 7 Jul 2010 ]
Two more settings have recently achieved the Stoke Speaks Out Level 4 'Communication Friendly' Setting Award! These are:
- Blurton Primary School (Foundation Stage)
- Burnwood Nursery School
We would like to send our congratulations to these settings and thank them for their hard work!
The Communication Friendly Status Award is an endorsement of a setting's capability to support the development of all children's communication skills.
We now have 16 settings and services in Stoke-on-Trent who have achieved this Award, with more currently preparing for moderation.
The Award is only given to settings who can demonstrate excellent practice in the areas of communication environment, general environment, staff knowledge and skills, and working with parents.
If you are interested in the Award or would just like more information, please contact Stoke Speaks Out on 01782 234501.

DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know that one in ten children in the U.K (approximately one million) have a speech or language difficulty?
In Stoke on Trent the figure is much higher than this - evidence from Sure Start local programmes suggests that more than half of the children in Stoke on Trent are at risk of a language or speech delay. This will impact significantly on the child's ability to learn and on future opportunities in life.
