We found speech delay’s greatest weakness — early detection of glue ear

Supporting better hearing, speech, and learning in early years settings.
We screen all the children in your nursery or school (up to year 2), once a term for glue ear.

What is Glue Ear?

Glue ear is a common childhood condition where fluid builds up in the middle ear, causing temporary hearing loss.
It affects up to 1 in 5 young children and often goes unnoticed.

What is the Universal Glue Ear Screening Programme?

A simple non-invasive screening programme for early years settings once per term. FREE , quick, child-friendly, and minimal disruption.

Why early detection matters

Missed glue ear can affect a child’s speech, learning, balance, and behaviour.
Early detection of glue ear allows the right support at the right time.
