Outside Service Providers in Schools
Schools and service providers have a shared interest in achieving positive educational outcomes for students with disability. Schools, families and service providers are committed to supporting students reach their potential, enjoy meaningful relationships and participate in their communities.
You may engage external service providers to deliver services to your children when they require additional health, disability and wellbeing support.
In some circumstances, it may be appropriate for these services to be delivered at school to ensure your child receives the best support and can participate fully in school. Working together as a team, schools, parents and providers can achieve the best educational outcomes for students.
The services offered by the provider may align with or complement the reasonable adjustments being provided by the school to facilitate the student’s access to education. If the service does not link with the student’s learning needs or enhance access to education, the service may be better delivered outside of school hours.
