Parent Help Desk 

In response to COVID19 restrictions, YarraMe School has established a Parent Help Desk for parents and carers, to assist in supporting children with complex needs who are learning from home.

YarraMe's Help Desk http://www.yarrame.vic.edu.au/help-desk.html  can assist with:

•          understanding a child's behaviour 

•          providing personalised one to one telephone consultation with a special education               teacher

•          discussion of a pathway for the family to seek formal diagnosis of learning                                 disabilities

•          discussion about behavioural support strategies

•          advice on setting up learning environments

•          providing targeted resources

•          referral to external services. 

The purpose of this service is to provide parents and carers with the opportunity to discuss their child's behaviours, which may be impeding their ability to learn at home.

The Help Desk can also help parents and carers to successfully navigate potential intervention pathways for their child.
