"I have used POPAT successfully for many years. All children benefit from this programme and soon become POPAT thinkers. It appeals to children who are visual, auditory or kinesthetic learners. This fits in with the Government’s desire to ensure that the education children receive suits their particular learning style.

Whenever I commence working with a child (or indeed an adult) with additional needs, I will always start with POPAT. Often, their fundamental failing stems from their lack of phonological awareness. Once this is established, most children go on to achieving their full potential.

If parents wish to give their child a good start in life I can think of no better programme than this programme of Phoneme Awareness Training."
