How does exercise physiology support school participation for children with disabilities?

Exercise physiology helps children participate in school by improving physical stamina, motor planning, sitting posture, and the ability to transition between activities. Many children with disabilities struggle to keep up in the classroom or playground due to fatigue, poor balance, or difficulties with coordination. Through structured and consistent sessions, Accredited Exercise Physiologists help children develop the strength and focus needed to engage more fully at school.

At daar, we create therapy programs that are aligned with school-readiness and participation goals. We support children to carry their school bags, sit comfortably for learning, walk safely between classes, and play with peers. Our therapists can also liaise with educators and support staff to reinforce strategies that work in both the clinic and school setting.
