Professional Support
On-site Pre-school Rehabilitation Services
The Magic Learning and Development Support Project provides the On-site Pre-school Rehabilitation Services funded by the Social Welfare Department to the nursery schools of HKSPC. With the service mission of “early identifications and full support for school”, the project enables the children with special education needs to receive necessary training as early as the “golden growth period” at school. Children can therefore unleash diverse potential and enhance their growth and development.
Through the collaborations among families, schools and professional teams, the multi-disciplinary team provides supporting services for teachers, child care workers, parents or carers. Apart from providing consulting services and professional training, the team also offers screening tools to the schools in need to assist nursery teachers to understand children’s growth and development, systematically identify the children in need and provide proper support.
