A speech and language program for schools with extra support
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new speech, language, and communication program for preschool and school children in areas with extra support. It aims to see if the program helps children improve their talking and communication skills.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child's school must be in one of the health service areas where the program is being offered.
- The school must be a DEIS school — this means it gets extra support because many students come from disadvantaged backgrounds.
- The preschool must be connected to a DEIS school.
- The school or preschool can also be a Child and Family Resource Centre, which is a support center for children from disadvantaged backgrounds.
- If your child's school is not a DEIS school or is not in a supported area, this trial isn't open to them.
