What this resource offers
ECDA’s DS-LS programme provides targeted developmental and learning support for eligible K1 and K2 children who need lower levels of early-intervention support. Published focus areas include speech and language, social, motor, behaviour and literacy, delivered in the preschool setting. The preschool assesses eligibility, so start by speaking with the child’s preschool team. Confirm whether the preschool offers the programme and whether it can run alongside the child’s other supports.
