Early childhood development programs (ECDP) support young children prior to school age with additional needs to build upon their foundational skills to maximise their learning and participation now and as they transition to school.
The ECDP at Woodcrest State College plays a different but complementary role to the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), Early Childhood Early Intervention (ECEI) supports, and local kindergartens. Our services cater to children with disabilities or suspected disabilities in one or more of the following areas:
- Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
- Hearing Impairment
- Intellectual Disability
- Physical Impairment
- Speech Language Impairment
- Vision Impairment
At Woodcrest ECDP, children aged 3-5 years attend our centre-based program twice per week for 2.5hrs per session during the school terms. The program is provided in a structured and supportive environment aimed at helping prepare your child for future schooling. The service is intended to complement your child's kindy program. We also work together with families and future schools to ensure a smooth transition for your child into full time education programs for their prep year.
