Individualized learning support for children with developmental, learning, and attention differences — structured around the child's pace and family routines.
Special education at Lifecare supports children whose learning, attention, or developmental needs are not best met by a standard classroom alone. Sessions are 1-to-1 with a qualified special educator, structured around the child's pace, learning profile, and the family's daily life. The approach is patient, evidence-aware, and parent-included — never punitive.
Care is delivered as a sequence — not a one-time appointment. Here is how a typical programme flows.
A 60-minute structured assessment across reading, writing, number, attention, and memory areas.
Goals are set based on the child's strengths, needs, assessments, observation, and parent input.
Typically twice-weekly 45–60 minute sessions, child-paced and multi-sensory.
Short, doable home routines parents can support without becoming "teachers".
Honest, practical answers to questions we hear most often before booking this service.
Tuition assumes the child can learn by being taught the same content more times. Special education starts by understanding how the child learns, then designs the approach around the child — not the curriculum. The two are not interchangeable.
No. Special education at the centre supplements school. We coordinate with the school where helpful so the same approach is consistent between sessions and classroom.
Yes. A formal diagnosis is not required. The assessment will identify learning patterns and design support based on what we see — diagnosis can be pursued separately if needed.
Many families combine this service with one or two others for a complete care plan.
