Generalization of speech is a particularly difficult and problematic stage of therapy; It can be an extremely slow process, putting a strain on therapy resources and resulting in frustration for children and their carers. The resource contains advice and activities as well as material specifically designed for targeting generalization in therapy sessions. It also looks at how therapists can equip parents and school staff with the essential skills and knowledge required to further support the child's progress away from the therapy setting. 'Gen Up on Speech':
- Uniquely, combines input from a clinical psychologist and an SLT, providing an excellent model of collaborative working to improve the level of care given to service users
- Offers a complete step-by-step guide to working with generalization, including a home-school programme to encourage practice
- Covers both the social and psychological perspectives in terms of wellbeing and educational attainment for children with speech difficulties
