Montrose is funded by the Department of Education (DoE) to deliver Specialist Disability Support in Schools (SDSS).
The SDSS program is designed to support schools to enhance learning outcomes for students who require significant educational adjustments.
It does this through the engagement of therapy supports. These supports and how they are delivered are directed by the school, in conjunction with the therapist.
Funded supports include Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy and Speech Pathology.

Information for parents
To receive SDSS funding, students need to obtain a completed School Request for Support form – parents should discuss this directly with the school or call Montrose on 1800 193 362 for more information on this process.
Support in school with SDSS funding is separate from NDIS funding.

Referrals can be made for students with a verified disability who require significant levels of educational adjustments. A referral must be made by the child’s school with the consent of the parent or caregiver.
