NELI

NELI is a programme for children in Reception (4-5 years) which has been found to improve children's language and early literacy skills.

A member of school staff delivers three small group sessions and two individual sessions to a targeted group of around 3-6 pupils for 20 weeks. 

NELI aims to develop children’s vocabulary, listening and narrative skills and in the last 10 weeks also involves activities to develop phonological awareness and early letter-sound knowledge as foundations for learning to read.
