In building up special needs children, Woodfield Manor has identified that speech and language plays a key role in the flow of communication between teachers and children. this has brought about the use of articulation therapy which involves the teacher teaching the child how to pronounce certain words

also, the use of the language intervention is key as it is much more of a play-and-activity process which encourages the child to speak more to develop their language abilities using PECs but this is not equivalent to speech and language therapy.
