Whole Child Therapy

We work in partnership with Whole Child Therapy to provide Occupational Therapy and SaLT that supports students’ sensory regulation, motor skills and independence. Using a holistic, child-centred approach, their therapists assess individual needs and deliver targeted interventions that help students engage more confidently in learning, develop everyday functional skills and feel more regulated within the school environment.
