College agreed (May 2011) specialist assessment of Michael's communication needs could take place at college, breakthrough, as Connexions worried they might not buy into the results of an assessment we paid for privately.
Much liaising with Principal and Connexions to get it to actually happen, but here we are, 2nd half of 3rd and final year, and it did.
Independent Speech and Language Therapist Judy King, who specialises in AAC, assessed Michael's comprehension, expressive language, and communication aid skills today through informal chat, dictation, picture description, the Test For Reception of Grammar (TROG), and the Derbyshire Language Scheme.
There was just enough time after the assessment for Judy to give family and college staff a brief overview of how Michael did.
