Direct specialist input alone cannot meet the current scale of speech and language needs in mainstream education.

Teaching First is a whole school approach to identifying and supporting speech, language and communication needs earlier. It gives education teams the training, tools and ongoing Speech and Language Therapy support to identify needs, begin appropriate intervention and monitor progress, with clear routes to specialist SLT input when needed.

By embedding daily support into the learner environment, settings build sustainable long term capacity.

Utilise structured pathways that track every milestone while maintaining direct access to expert advice. Whole school access starts from £3,000 per year.

Identifying children's needs earlier is only half the solution. What happens next matters just as much.

Schools are under increasing pressure to deliver earlier SEND support, strengthen inclusion and make better use of limited resources.

But identifying needs without the capacity to respond simply creates another waiting list.

Teaching First by Chatterbug, powered by Brightspeech, helps schools move from identification to intervention.

Combining early screening, structured interventions, workforce development and ongoing specialist Speech and Language Therapy support, we help schools build the capability to respond earlier.

Our Intervention First approach is already demonstrating encouraging results, with 88% of children accessing intervention making progress.

RESPOND. Move from identifying needs to delivering earlier intervention, with the right expertise and support in place.

Because sustainable inclusion isn't just about accessing specialists. It's about building expertise within schools.

National SEND reforms demand a fundamental shift toward earlier, targeted intervention inside mainstream settings. Waiting over 52 weeks for external specialist assessment is no longer viable for schools or children.

Children should not have to wait for specialist input before support can begin.

Teaching First supports the direction of SEND reform by enabling earlier identification, earlier intervention, building capability within schools and keeping specialist expertise closer to the child.

Teaching First is a whole school approach to identifying and supporting speech, language and communication needs earlier. It gives education teams the training, tools and ongoing Speech and Language Therapy support to identify needs, begin appropriate intervention and monitor progress, with clear routes to specialist SLT input when needed.

IDENTIFY. Equip your setting to screen learners and deploy structured support immediately. Whole school access starts from £3,000 per year.
