Schools - Independent & Private
Touch the Sky provides a means for schools to provide much needed therapy to children with special learning needs. We take away much of the cost and logistical issues that so often hinder your ability to offer the right level of therapeutic care. Working with Touch the Sky, you can employ a therapist based in Scotland to teach students as needed in your South Coast school. Please visit “The Solution” page to read about how it works.
What does our service cover?
- We review your school’s needs (type of therapy required / frequency / number of students) and connect you with one or more of our qualified therapists, therapists, teachers, CPD trainers and coaches who have all been individually vetted for their ability and suitability to teach
- We provide access to the video and internet technology needed for the interactive sessions. Touch the Sky has sourced equipment from leading companies and has specially engineered highly competitive prices, ensuring clear images delivered over a secure live videolink. Our quality procedures insist on performance assessment and behaviour corroboration. Every session is recorded on DVD, this gives schools the facility for self evaluation and progress measurement.
