We can help!

A recent report documents that children's (particularly young children's) speech and language development has been adversely affected by the past year of lockdowns - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-56889035
Luckily Helen O'Grady Drama Academy classes can help in just 1 hour a week. We encourage children to speak in sentences, widen their vocabulary and develop creative description.
