How we do it here

Skills You Actually Use

After School/Work Sessions

Carefully Matched Groups

Your child will gain the tools and social skills to confidently connect with others, build meaningful friendships, and step into new schools or workplaces ready to thrive.

Carefully Matched Groups

After School/Work Sessions

Carefully Matched Groups

Your child’s well-being comes first. That’s why we carefully match them with a teacher who understands their needs and a group they’ll feel supported, connected, and excited to learn.

After School/Work Sessions

After School/Work Sessions

All sessions are held after school in the afternoons or evenings, so your child keeps their routine and you avoid the stress of midday appointments.

Parent Training and Support Sessions

We understand this journey can feel challenging and sometimes lonely. Our parent sessions teach practical strategies to support your child, while also connecting you with a community of parents for guidance and encouragement at no extra cost.

Evidence-Based & Proven Results

Frequently Asked Questions

If you can't find an answer to your question, please reach us at hello@pathwaypartnerships.com.au 

Your child can:

Stop doing their course if they need to.

Switch to a different course if you need to.

Do ‘catch-up’ sessions for missed sessions.

You won't be billed for an entire course if your child needs to pull out.

Almost every time, our kids/teens find their groove and enjoy their sessions.

If your child needs tweaks, we can switch your child to a different mini-group, modify session times, or even pair them with a different leader.

We understand that sometimes life seriously happens… A death in the family, sudden health issues, parents going through a hard time etc etc. 

But rest assured, if it doesn't work out (and it will), you're only billed for the part of the course that your family participated in.


No NDIS funding? No problem. You can still access our programs by paying out of pocket, without the extra burden of gathering formal evidence.
