Methods:  Teaching assistants (TAs) were trained to deliver a reading and language intervention to children in individual daily 40-min sessions. We used a waiting list control design, in which half the sample received the intervention immediately, whereas the remaining children received the treatment after a 20-week delay. Fifty-seven children with Down syndrome in mainstream primary schools in two UK locations (Yorkshire and Hampshire) were randomly allocated to intervention (40 weeks of intervention) and waiting control (20 weeks of intervention) groups. Assessments were conducted at three time points: pre-intervention, after 20 weeks of intervention, and after 40 weeks of intervention. Results:  After 20 weeks of intervention, the intervention group showed significantly greater progress than the waiting control group on measures of single word reading, letter-sound knowledge, phoneme blending and taught expressive vocabulary. Effects did not transfer to other skills (nonword reading, spelling, standardised expressive and receptive vocabulary, expressive information and grammar). After 40 weeks of intervention, the intervention group remained numerically ahead of the control group on most key outcome measures; but these differences were not significant. Children who were younger, attended more intervention sessions, and had better initial receptive language skills made greater progress during the course of the intervention. Conclusions:  A TA-delivered intervention produced improvements in the reading and language skills of children with Down syndrome. Gains were largest in skills directly taught with little evidence of generalization to skills not directly taught in the intervention.

Evaluation of a parent-delivered early language enrichment programme: evidence from a randomised controlled trial / Kelly BURGOYNE in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 59-5 (May 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 59-5 (May 2018) . - p.545-555 Titre : Evaluation of a parent-delivered early language enrichment programme: evidence from a randomised controlled trial Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kelly BURGOYNE, Auteur ; R.

HULME, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.545-555 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Language  early literacy  education  motor skills  parents  randomised controlled trial Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: It is widely believed that increasing parental involvement can improve children's educational outcomes although we lack good evidence for such claims. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a parent-delivered early language enrichment programme. METHODS: We conducted a randomised controlled trial (RCT) with 208 preschool children and their parents living in socially diverse areas in the United Kingdom. Families were allocated to an oral language programme (N = 103) or an active control programme targeting motor skills (N = 105). Parents delivered the programmes to their child at home in daily 20-min sessions over 30 weeks of teaching. RESULTS: Children receiving the language programme made significantly larger gains in language (d = .21) and narrative skills (d = .36) than children receiving the motor skills programme at immediate posttest. Effects on language were maintained 6 months later (d = .34), and at this point, the language group also scored higher on tests of early literacy (d values=.35 and .42). There was no evidence that the movement programme improved motor skills. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides evidence for the effectiveness of a parent-delivered language enrichment programme. Further large-scale evaluations of the programme are needed to confirm and extend these findings.

Low-birthweight children at early school-age: a longitudinal study / C. M. DRILLIEN in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 22-1 (February 1980)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 22-1 (February 1980) . - p.26-47 Titre : Low-birthweight children at early school-age: a longitudinal study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : C. M. DRILLIEN, Auteur ; A. J. M. THOMSON, Auteur ; Kelly BURGOYNE, Auteur Année de publication : 1980 Article en page(s) : p.26-47 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Eighty-seven per cent of a cohort of 299 low-birthweight (LBW) infants (less than or equal to 2000 g) were examined at age 6 years 8 months, together with 111 control children. All the controls and 248 of the LBW children were individually assessed in school. Information about another 13 LBW children was obtained by questionnaire. Problems in primary school were related to social grade, evidence of early intra-uterine insult, sex, postnatal complications and neurological and developmental status in the first year of life. Multiple birth, gestation and intra-uterine growth were not clearly related to problems in school. The incidence of major handicap, as compared with LBW infants born between 1953 and 1955, showed little change when earlier-born infants who had been subjected to severe restriction of fluid and calorie intake were excluded. Ninety-two per cent of LBW children traced were attending normal schools. Those who showed no evidence of early intra-uterine insult and who were neurologically normal in the first year of life were largely indistinguishable from control children reared in similar homes.

The efficacy of early language intervention in mainstream school settings: a randomized controlled trial / Silke FRICKE in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 58-10 (October 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 58-10 (October 2017) . - p.1141-1151 Titre : The efficacy of early language intervention in mainstream school settings: a randomized controlled trial Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Silke FRICKE, Auteur ; Kelly BURGOYNE, Auteur ; Claudine BOWYER-CRANE, Auteur ; Maria KYRIACOU, Auteur ; Alexandra ZOSIMIDOU, Auteur ; Liam MAXWELL, Auteur ; Arne LERVAG, Auteur ; Margaret J. SNOWLING, Auteur ; Charles HULME, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1141-1151 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Early intervention  language  reading  RCT design  education Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Oral language skills are a critical foundation for literacy and more generally for educational success. The current study shows that oral language skills can be improved by providing suitable additional help to children with language difficulties in the early stages of formal education. Methods We conducted a randomized controlled trial with 394 children in England, comparing a 30-week oral language intervention programme starting in nursery (N = 132) with a 20-week version of the same programme starting in Reception (N = 133). The intervention groups were compared to an untreated waiting control group (N = 129). The programmes were delivered by trained teaching assistants (TAs) working in the children's schools/nurseries. All testers were blind to group allocation. Results Both the 20- and 30-week programmes produced improvements on primary outcome measures of oral language skill compared to the untreated control group. Effect sizes were small to moderate (20-week programme: d = .21; 30-week programme: d = .30) immediately following the intervention and were maintained at follow-up 6 months later. The difference in improvement between the 20-week and 30-week programmes was not statistically significant. Neither programme produced statistically significant improvements in children's early word reading or reading comprehension skills (secondary outcome measures). Conclusions This study provides further evidence that oral language interventions can be delivered successfully by trained TAs to children with oral language difficulties in nursery and Reception classes. The methods evaluated have potentially important policy implications for early education.
