Inclusion in action: Allied Health professionals working alongside teachers

What changes when allied health support moves out of the consulting room and into the classroom?

At Dinjerra Primary School, Noah’s Ark Speech Pathologist Mary Lin and Occupational Therapist Kim Doidge work alongside teachers and students where learning actually happens.

Together, they observe, test practical strategies and adapt them in real time. The impact reaches beyond individual students. Teachers build confidence, students are better supported to participate, and inclusive practice becomes part of the everyday classroom.

As the video puts it:

“It’s not just about having someone come in and fix things. It’s about building the school we all want to work in.”

Watch the video to see what that partnership looks like in practice.

Every school’s inclusion journey is different. Let’s build the right support for yours.
