We believe that language is the
absolute fundamental life skill that all children and young people need to be
independent, to build relationships and to gain employment. We are committed to
supporting our future generations achieve this, by providing a high quality
professional and holistic service, which demonstrates measurable impact with
the child and young person at the heart of our work. We pride ourselves on a
service which goes beyond the pre-school and the primary years, into secondary
school and post -16 settings.
Stepping Stones SaLT Services Ltd
was founded in early 2018 by Deeba Akram, a highly specialist speech and
language therapist. Our services include assessment, treatment and reports for
children and young people aged 2-18 years, presenting with a broad range of developmental
and acquired Speech, Language and Communication Needs (SLCN’s). In addition, we
are able to offer a range of strategic, solution focused services to support
educational settings wanting to improve literacy and attainment, through a
focus on innovative, whole school oral language approaches. These have been
applied very successfully with primary, secondary and post-16 settings, and
have supported schools improve their Ofsted ratings. Our services are responsive and work within
CQC and Ofsted framework. Stepping Stones also specialises in communication
disorders in bilingual children and young people.
