School & Daycare Visits
School visits include OT sessions at your child’s school, day-care, or preschool. School visits can be for classroom observations and in-person consultation or meetings at the school. These visits play a crucial role in promoting the success of children with OT needs in their educational setting
Benefits of OT school visits:
Your child receives therapy during the school day, we can directly target goals related to learning and the school environment
OT collaborates with educators in real time to ensure recommendations are effectively implemented in the school environment. OTs can customise recommendations so they can practically fit into your child’s school routine
Parents can request classroom observations to gather information about their child’s behaviour, interaction, challenges in the school setting and environmental factors such as seating arrangements, classroom organisation, learning task and sensory stimuli that may impact school performance
OT can provide education and training to school staff. This empowers educators to better understand your child’s individual needs
OT can actively participate in Individualised Education Program (IEP) meetings and advocate for your child’s occupational therapy needs
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you feel your child would benefit from school visits.
