Secondary Consult

Picture
The purpose of this service is to provide schools with the opportunity to discuss a student that is presenting with behaviours of concern in the mainstream primary classroom with a Yarra Me Special Education Consultant.

​The Secondary Consult can assist with:
  • Better understanding student behaviours of concern
  • One-off case discussions
  • Discussion of a pathway for school/family to seek formal diagnosis
  • Behavioural support approaches
  • Advice on classroom environments

The Special Education Consultant will assist the school in developing a clear understanding of the student through:
  • Discussion and feedback with key staff
  • A classroom observation
  • An analysis of the student’s file

An effective consultation is possible when:
  • The student being referred has had either a cognitive assessment or a speech assessment or both. At the time of the Consultation, one or both assessments will need to be available. The information in these assessments will help develop the learner profile and inform the recommendations and strategies.
  • The school provides release time for the classroom teacher to attend the feedback meeting with the Special Education Consultant.
 
This service is currently limited to state primary schools located in the Hume-Moreland and North East Melbourne areas of the North Western Victoria Region. Schools within the Greater Bendigo areas can be serviced through a virtual consultation with the Special Education Consultant.

ADMINISTRATION SERVICE FEE
If a school requests to have a written report at the end of the consultation, a non-refundable fee of $300 is charged to the referring school. Yarra Me does not charge parents or carers a service fee.
