The program supports schools by providing funding to Children’s Therapy Centre to deliver services to improve access to and participation in the curriculum and the educational outcomes of eligible school-aged students with disability. The SDSS is delivered at the written request of the school based on the needs of the student to access and participate in the curriculum.
