Who can help?'When my child was diagnosed with physical difficulties I was told he'd need to see either a physiotherapist (PT) or an occupational therapist (OT). The referral came through to see the OT. Initially I was disappointed; I thought OT was to physio, what a nurse is to a doctor, but I was wrong... I just wish I'd had a better understanding beforehand.'
A number of key personnel may advise, assess and treat your child, to help give them the best possible chances to realise their potential. But who does what? |

The Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo)'There were indeed extenuating circumstances, but this did not appease an irate mother who had to listen to the staff's uninformed opinions on her daughter's abilities!'
A SENCo or special educational needs co-ordinator is the person who will advise you of how the school can/will meet your child's additional requirements. |
