Therapy for students attending PWPS

At Piara Waters Primary School, we encourage students to attend therapy outside of school hours. If therapy is to be conducted during school time, we provide the following options:

  • Therapists (OT, Speech, Physio) work inside the classroom, alongside the student, teacher and EA during the regular lesson. This enables the teacher and education assistant to learn how to better adapt the curriculum for the student to increase their access.  
  • If these sessions span over a recess or lunchtime, the empty classroom may be used for one-on-one time. However, this will impact the student’s recess or lunch break. Some therapists use this time to support the child/observe or work on social skills in the playground.
  • Therapists may book the conference room or library for student sessions before or after school.
