SEN Provisions & School Consultations
SEN Provisions
Therapy in Praxis provides school-based therapy interventions in support of the child and the Local Education Authority, [LEA] to comply with the provisions as set out following Statutory Assessment of Educational Needs and the Statement of Educational Needs. Therapy in Praxis covers a wide geographical consensus and offers support to inform the Individual Education Plan and Annual Review processes.
School Consultations
Therapy in Praxis can provide a consultation to the entire team working with a child at school (i.e., teacher, integrated support, special educational needs coordinator [SENCo], therapists). The focus of the school consultation is on developing therapeutic strategies and sensory diets in tandem with the ‘Team’ in order to establish a therapy programme that minimises the disruption of the child’s existing classroom schedule to maximise learning and captures compliance from both the child and the ‘Team’! Each consultation is custom-tailored for each child’s specific needs, the particular classroom situation and the child’s ‘Team’, (sometimes activities involving the entire classrooms are more appropriate than one-to-one attention).
School consultations can also be provided to educate the school staff in general about how certain approaches, for example, sensory integration dysfunction, (sensory processing disorder) can present in the classroom, how to identify it and the strategies that are helpful forthese children as well as the entire class.
