School-Wide Consults
School-Based Support Services
At The Point Occupational Therapy, we partner directly with schools, directors, and teachers to help every student succeed. Our therapists come into classrooms to observe, collaborate, and provide practical recommendations that support learning, participation, and inclusion.
We assist schools by offering:
Environmental adaptations and classroom modifications to support focus and participation
Fine motor, handwriting, and visual motor strategies to enhance skill development
Sensory processing tools and supports tailored to student needs
Creation of sensory spaces within classrooms to promote regulation and readiness to learn
Program consultation for handwriting and self-regulation approaches
Recommendations for classroom setup, such as seating options and reducing distractions during circle time
Our team doesn’t just make recommendations, we work directly with teachers and staff to implement changes, ensuring consistency, proper carryover, and meaningful impact. We believe that true inclusion, where every child can participate fully, is the foundation of a strong and successful school program.
