NDIS-funded therapy supports and schools
Some children and young people with disability may benefit from allied health and specialist therapies. Examples include physiotherapy, speech pathology and occupational therapy. In most cases, these therapies can be delivered at home or in a therapist’s office. Some therapies may be best delivered in school during school time.
If you would like your child to see an external therapist (physiotherapist, occupational therapist, speech pathologist, etc), please send a written request through to me by emailing melanie.meers@det.nsw.edu.au or sending in a letter of request. I will then make contact with the therapist and ask them for the required paperwork needed to work in schools.
