We have a child with SEN/EAL in our class, can we include them?

There are very few children with language difficulties who will not benefit from the NELI programme and it has been found to be as effective for children who are learning English as an additional language as for children with English as their native language/first language. It is important to note, however, that children with severe social and behavioural difficulties who would find it very challenging to be part of a group for 25-minute sessions, or those with severe sensory impairments may not be suitable for the programme.
