- In this episode of our “Let’s Talk About...” series, Chrissa is chatting about DEVELOPMENTAL LANGUAGE DISORDER (DLD) to Libby Hill, award-winning Speech & Language Therapist from Small Talk Speech & Language Therapy.
DLD, used to be called SLI, and is more common than Autism but not many people know about it. Sometimes the wrong assumptions are made about children with DLD, leading to their needs not being met and incorrect diagnoses being made.For further resources visit the Sunshine Academy.

This is so beneficial and deserves so many views
Really useful and clear. Libby is very articulate!
Glad you think so!
❤️❤️❤️
Insightful
I'm glad you found it useful!
I feel that the Developmental in DLD is Inaccurate because, its not just during childhood, this will last your whole life.
It's because it's during a child's development that the differences develop, and then they last a lifetime.
I don´t think I got this but I search for words very often ...
I talk to much, shorting up. Let me help and thou research I will be one big fan, guinea pig. Hope on right track or right place. Your the teacher I hope that what I'm doing u no what I'm.....
I am experiencing it even as an adult, does it have a cure?
Dont know if you found out but it stays forever but becomes easier and no cure yet known
No, it's a developmental disorder but with the right interventions and support it can absolutely improve as you're able to find ways to manage it.
Why aren’t teachers trained in the same way?
One sendco for all children.
I’m appalled in the lack of knowledge teachers have.
I am a parent with a son just diagnosed and it’s incredibly difficult to understand.
The headteacher didn’t even know my son has got an EHCP with nothing to support him done since September and wants to exclude him.
Where do I get help please I’m struggling myself x
I'm really sorry to hear that you are going through that, it's incredibly frustrating. There does seem to be a complete lack of knowledge and understanding when it comes to DLD in particular but also a lot of other SEND. That's also mind blowing that the Head teacher didn't know that you child had an EHCP I can totally understand how that would make you feel.
There is support out there, we offer a wide range of things from a free cuppa and chat to a paid advocacy service. Have a look at sunshine-support.org.uk there is also plenty more on this channel that can help as well
😊
Thank you for commenting :-)
Is it possible to change your opening slide where it calls Developmental Language Disorder, 'Delayed Language Distorder' thank you.
Hi Amanda, we're not sure we can change the slide but we'll see what we can do to amend and correct this information! 💛
This or any other video on the same topic is not telling if a child with the disorder does speak at home or not.
