Welcome to the Derbyshire Language Scheme

The Derbyshire Language Scheme is an intervention programme which targets early language skills. It is highly structured, with carefully graded objectives starting from single words and moving to long complex sentences.

It includes assessment materials, allowing the user to establish the current levels of skill. The assessment links directly with teaching activities.

In the United Kingdom, Eire and Australia there are official tutors who organise training workshops to facilitate its implementation. 

Its distribution has been tranferred under licence to Medoc Computers Ltd from Derbyshire County Council although it continues to be run and developed by Mark Masidlover. There has been no change in the materials provided.
