Leapfrog O.T's are trained to conduct specialist handwriting assessments for older students, to determine the need for special provisions in both Victoria or NSW.  We carry out comprehensive, specialist assessments looking at the quality, legibility and speed of handwriting.  For students with autism, ADHD, Developmental Coordination Disorder or Disorders of Written Expression, specialist accomodations can be provided.  This assessment information can be used as supporting evidence, to demonstrate longstanding handwriting difficulties, which is a current requirement when applying for special consideration through VCAA (in Victoria) or BOSTES (in NSW).  

 

Leapfrog O.T's will provide written reports outlining occupational therapy assessment results and recommendations, including the need for accomodations such as laptop use or extra time to complete examinations.
