Submitting a Request for Therapy to occur at school / during school hours

Therapy programs that are delivered at school should be aligned with the Individual Education Plan (IEP) goals and contribute to the achievement of these goals. Families and Therapists are required to meet with the teacher of the student/Learning Support Coordinator to discuss goals and proposed therapy at school. Education staff within the classroom welcome additional programs and strategies they can implement into the students’ school day that will assist students to meet their goals.
