In-Reach Allied Health Services National 360

In-Reach Allied Health Services

At National 360, we believe the best therapy happens where children live, learn, and play. Our in-reach model brings our allied health clinicians directly into the environments that matter most: schools, early learning centres (ELCs), and playgroup settings. This is so children can access support without leaving the places where their growth and development naturally unfolds.

In-reach services are delivered by our experienced team of Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, Physiotherapists, Behaviour Support Practitioners, and Early Childhood Practitioners. Services can be funded through the NDIS (including the Early Childhood Approach), or privately.

Therapy in Playgroup Settings

Our clinicians work alongside teachers, support staff, and families to deliver therapy within the school environment, helping children participate more fully in their learning and daily school routines.

School-based therapy supports a child's participation, independence, and wellbeing in ways that directly translate into the classroom and playground. Rather than separating therapy from everyday life, our in-school approach ensures strategies and goals are embedded into real routines and activities.

What school-based therapy can include:
  • Classroom-based Occupational Therapy to support fine motor skills, handwriting, sensory processing, and self-regulation
  • Speech Pathology to develop communication, language, literacy, and social interaction skills
  • Physiotherapy to support gross motor development, mobility, and physical participation
  • Behaviour Support to develop positive behaviour strategies for school settings
  • Consultation and professional development for school staff
  • Collaborative goal-setting with teachers, families, and support coordinators

We work with both mainstream and specialist schools, and can co-ordinate with existing school support teams to ensure care is consistent and targeted.

Early learning centres - including long day care, kindergarten, and preschool settings - are a natural environment for early intervention. When therapy is embedded into a child's ELC day, it reaches them at a critical developmental window and creates immediate opportunities to practise new skills with peers.

Our clinicians partner with ELC educators to build a consistent, supportive environment for every child. We provide services at the centre and work closely with families to ensure goals are reinforced at home as well.

What ELC-based therapy can include:
  • Play-based Occupational Therapy and Speech Pathology sessions within the ELC environment
  • Developmental assessment and early identification of support needs
  • Caregiver coaching for families and ELC educators
  • Individualised therapy planning aligned with each child's ELC goals and NDIS plan
  • Behaviour Support for children with complex needs
  • Group-based therapy and skill-building activities

National 360 is a registered provider under the NSW Department of Education Specialist Allied Health and Behaviour Support Provider Scheme (SCM5604). This scheme enables eligible schools in NSW to access funded specialist allied health and behaviour support services for students with disability

Playgroups offer a unique and powerful setting for early intervention. Alongside peers in a relaxed, play-focused environment, children can develop communication, social, sensory, and motor skills in a way that feels natural and enjoyable.

National 360 has the scope to deliver in-reach allied health services within playgroup settings. Our clinicians can work within existing community playgroups or therapeutic playgroups to provide observation, participation-based therapy, and coaching for caregivers.

What playgroup-based therapy can include:
  • Observation and participation-based assessment within a naturalistic group environment
  • Play-based Speech Pathology and Occupational Therapy
  • Caregiver coaching and education during sessions
  • Social skills and peer interaction support
  • Sensory processing strategies embedded into group activities
  • Referral and transition support to ELC or school-based services
