We offer a free support service for Pre-School, Nursery, Primary and Post Primary pupils who are diagnosed with a physical disability.
This support can be in the form of advice for parents and teaching/non-teaching staff, Environmental Assessments of the school building, ICT Assessments, Manual Handling Training and loaning out of specialised equipment such as adapted scissors, enlarged keyboards etc.
To request an Environmental Assessment or ICT Assessment the school SENCO/LSC should make contact with their SEN Link Officer who will then forward the request to our service.
SEN Link Officers can also make direct referrals to us for Environmental Assessments.
For further information contact Mitchell House on 02890768407
Preschool Home School Support
As an Outreach Support Service we offer pre-school home support in the form of play sessions for young children who are diagnosed with a physical disability.
This is a great opportunity to develop and build upon those early fundamental learning skills in preparation for Nursery.

In order to access an Environmental Assessment or ICT Assessment the school your child attends should contact the relevant SEN Link Officer in the EA, who will then send your request to us.
