What happens during a spelling intervention?

During a spelling intervention, the individual will usually be taught different techniques to aid them in spelling. For example, being taught techniques such as mnemonics will boost the individuals spelling skills. The child or young person can reflect on which techniques they feel are the most helpful. Spelling interventions can take place on an individual or group basis. Our spelling interventions can be provided both within and outside of school.

What happens after a spelling intervention?

After a spelling intervention, the individual will have become able to use spelling techniques to improve progress in spelling tasks, reading and literacy in general. Following a spelling intervention, we might suggest carrying out a follow-up session, if required. We can offer a feedback session to communicate the outcomes, or provide a written report, if needed. We will support you through the entire intervention process, which is the reason why we offer follow up support.

Is a report included in a spelling intervention?

Following an intervention, we always recommend a report that includes what occurred, the impact of our involvement, and lastly, our recommendations for the future. Reasons for requesting a spelling intervention vary, and if you do not need a written report, then feedback will be provided verbally, alongside a brief summary. You can Read more about our reports.
