Our paediatric occupational therapists assess children who are face barriers with everyday activities. These may include:

• self-care
• hand function
• play development
• balance and co-ordination
• perceptual skills

In addition to this our occupational therapists support our school in ensuring children have appropriate indoor seating and can advise on supporting pupils with sensory issues.  They support staff in an advisory role as well as working with children directly.
