Improving services for children and young people with speech, language and communication needs
The Better Communications Research Programme (BCRP) was a 3 year research programme, part of the government's response to the Bercow Review of provision for children and young people with speech, language and communication needs, published in July 2008.
The 19 reports from the BCRP were published by the Department for Education in December 2012. Other publications are also available.
In the first few months the dedicated BCRP page received 17,125 hits.
During 2013-2015 we are working with the Communication Trust to disseminate the findings of the BCRP and to use the research evidence to contribute to the development of policy and practice.
