Dr. Rosalyn Tamming:

Whether that will actually happen remains to be seen. Let us say there are two therapists in a school of 100 children in a special school. In one of the schools I visited, there were 12 different CDNTs associated with it. In order to have a seamless service, the therapists in the schools have to be liaising with the others. That is 12 different sets of therapists to liaise with. There are the universal, targeted and individual supports. The focus, particularly in the first couple of years, will be on the universal and the targeted supports; however, parents, when they hear therapists are going into schools, expect their children will receive one-to-one therapy. A complete change of mindset has to happen in this regard, both on the school side and on the CDNT side, because one to one is not how they operate. The evidence is not available-----
