WAK

Wrap Around Kids™ – NDIS SOFTWARE – is an award-winning, Australian program designed to address the growing incidence of kids who don’t fit in with today’s classroom environment. It’s designed to provide teachers with practical classroom strategies for managing different learning styles and behaviors.

When a child has a medical condition or disability, it pervades every aspect of their life. It may surprise you to know that as many as one in five students require additional support during their 30 hours a week at school.

Wrap Around Kids™ provides a communication framework for regular sharing of information and expertise between families, teachers and other managing professionals and is compliant with Privacy Legislation.

Put simply, it’s a dynamic collaboration between parents, education and health professionals facilitated by confidential meetings at school.

Here, precious insights are gathered and plans made with the aim of resolving issues affecting the child’s health, learning outcomes, social success, family and psychological well-being.

Wrap Around Kids On Line (WAKOL) is an internet based software application designed and developed specifically for Wrap Around Kids.
WAKOL provides the tools to:

Share information about a child with the key people involved in management Centralise parents’ storage of information critical to the support of their children Implement Wrap Around Kids™ at participating schools

Researchers will have the opportunity to analyze aggregated data, resulting in a better understanding of community needs.

WAKOL empowers parents, allowing them to decide who accesses their children’s records.

Benefits for Today & Tomorrow

Wrap Around Kids™ provides teachers with:

The training, software and years of experience that will challenge old systems and build greater understanding. With greater understanding come greater rewards.

Already, we are seeing so-called “problem children” blossom as they discover self-esteem and talents beyond expectations to become valued members of the community.

With continued support, we believe we can reduce the escalating community costs of delinquency, family breakdown, school expulsion, teachers’ stress leave, juvenile justice and other welfare costs and produce happier, healthier children capable of achieving true greatness.



We have a growing file of success stories.



Dan’s

Original “Jigsaw” art was painted by Dan. In Grade 4, Dan’s natural artistic talent was recognised in a Wrap Around Kids meeting and this was to be the turning point for this young man. While his siblings did well at school and sport, Dan soon proved how well he could do in art. His self-esteem soared. Today, he is a popular high school student and an excellent achiever with strong goals in place.

Cameron’s

Cameron’s story includes a history of hyperactivity, disorganisation and behavioural problems at home and school. Yet his IQ fell into the superior range. After being diagnosed with ADHD, and trialling medication for one week, the difference was dramatic to say the least – and that was just the beginning. Later on that year, ‘the kid who couldn’t concentrate’ won a national creative writing competition.
