Most children follow a typical pattern of speech sound development and all children make errors as their sound system develops. Learning to pronounce all speech sounds correctly is a critical part of a child’s development and progress made in the preschool and early years is crucial to mastering the rules for reading and spelling.
Research has shown a clear link between speech sound disorders and slower literacy development at school.
