Support for
Schools
Practical, collaborative, and embedded support that works in real classrooms.
At Petite Therapy, we understand that schools need more than reports — they need real, hands-on support that fits the classroom context and helps staff feel confident in responding to children’s needs.
Our assessments help uncover the why behind a child’s challenges — whether they’re struggling to concentrate, finding handwriting difficult, or showing behaviours linked to sensory or motor differences. Understanding these underlying factors allows us to design targeted, meaningful strategies that make learning and participation easier for every child.
That’s why we work in partnership with schools — not just to assess, but to model, coach, and embed therapeutic strategies that support participation, regulation, and inclusion throughout the school day.
What we offer to schools:
- Occupational therapy, Sensory Integration assessments
- In-school 1:1 or small group Occupational Therapy sessions
- Real-time modelling of strategies with teachers and teaching assistants
- EHCP contributions, outcome-focused reports, and attendance at Annual Reviews
- Ongoing support with implementation and review of EHCP targets
- Staff training on sensory regulation, executive functioning, trauma-informed approaches, and inclusive practice
- Sensory and environmental audits with practical classroom recommendations
- Liaison with wider multi-agency teams and SEND professionals
We work from a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming approach, recognising that children’s behaviour is a form of communication and that sensory, emotional, and environmental factors all interact to affect learning and wellbeing.
Whether your school needs help understanding one child or support for embedding whole-class regulation strategies, we offer responsive, collaborative input that fits your context – and makes a lasting difference.
