The service works closely with education staff, including the Outreach service, to ensure interventions at all stages can be delivered effectively. This approach means children and young people are able to access support immediately on identification of their needs, with minimal disruption to their education. 
They support children with sensory and motor skill difficulties following a graduated approach, this may include -

  • Universal occupational therapy strategies used in school when their needs are first identified.
  • If support is still required, your child may be referred for more targeted and individualised support from the Wolverhampton Outreach or Early Years service.
  • Additionally, if further support is required following universal and targeted approaches, a referral can be made for more specialist intervention from the Occupational Therapy service.
