Core standards

These core standards are aimed to help parents and professionals identify areas that a child may be having difficulties with and explore appropriate strategies through practise and play.

Core standards has a holistic focus and includes support with sensory, physical and communication needs.

Although these are labelled as pre school and school age documents, you can use strategies and ideas from both documents to support children, depending on what stage they are at with their communication development, irrelevant of their age. You may need to adapt the resources or activities to suit their individual needs, interests or motivations.
