I am Sam Edmonds. I qualified as a Speech and Language Therapist in 2002 and have additionally trained as a dyslexia tutor and assessor. I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council, Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists, Association of Speech and Language Therapists in Independent Practice and the British Dyslexia Association. \u001b   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I worked in the NHS Speech and Language Therapy service in Cornwall for 12 years, mostly within mainstream school and nursery settings. I set up Kernow Communication Therapy in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During term time I currently work directly for a multi-academy trust of schools. I work across the trust, helping schools to provide the most appropriate support for children with speech, language, literacy and communication needs. I have extensive knowledge and experience of a whole range of special educational needs and I maintain strong links with the NHS and Local Authority speech and language teams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to my caseload in schools, I work independently with a small number of families, offering appointments mostly during school holidays and at weekends. I can provide brief screening or full diagnostic assessments, direct therapy or advice and resources for home and school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For enquiries about private appointments in the home please see my contacts page. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For commissioned services to schools or training packages please contact: sedmonds@kernowlearning.co.uk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi!
