Communication is the foundation of learning and friendships. We bring speech pathology into the classroom and playground — supporting school-aged children in the setting where they spend their days.
Why support at school matters
Skills practised at a clinic desk don't always travel to the classroom. By working in your child's school, we can support communication where it actually happens — following instructions, joining class discussions, making friends at recess, and accessing the curriculum. We collaborate with teachers so strategies are embedded in everyday learning, not left behind after a session.
What we help with at school age
- Language and developmental language disorder (DLD) — understanding, vocabulary, sentences and narrative
- Reading and spelling foundations, including phonological awareness
- Speech clarity for children still hard to understand
- Social communication and friendship skills
- Stuttering support and confidence for older children
- AAC use across the school day
Working alongside teachers and families
We set classroom-friendly goals that align with the Victorian curriculum, share practical strategies with teachers and aides, and keep families in the loop. This team-around-the-child approach is what makes support stick.
Getting started
We welcome referrals from families, teachers, GPs and other professionals. You don't need a diagnosis to begin — refer a child or get in touch to talk it through.
Common questions
Do you provide speech pathology inside schools?
Yes. As a mobile practice we can work within schools and early learning settings across Melbourne's South-East, collaborating with teachers so support is embedded in the classroom.
How do you work with my child's teacher?
We set classroom-friendly goals aligned with the curriculum, share practical strategies with teachers and aides, and keep communication open so everyone supports your child consistently.
Can school-based support be funded?
Yes — depending on your circumstances, support may be funded through NDIS, Medicare or privately. We're happy to talk through the options.
