School Years

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD) may have difficulties in their school setting. Autism Queensland's Outreach Services team works with the child's school support team to identify strategies to improve educational outcomes.

The Outreach Services team is a multidisciplinary team consisting of teachers, speech pathologists and occupational therapists. They will address current educational and developmental needs and concerns related to communication, sensory processing, fine and gross motor skills, accessing the curriculum and general behaviour. They will also provide information, advice, support and individualised strategies to parents, staff and other involved personnel.
