SOUND FAMILIAR?
You know this child.
He looks fine from across the classroom. Up close, it's a different story. He melts down over homework that shouldn't take this long. He says he's "fine" and then cries at bedtime because he doesn't understand why everyone else finds it so easy. Some mornings he says his stomach hurts and asks to stay home. He's not failing. He's exhausted, and he's started to believe that's just what school feels like.
Maybe he's already been flagged. Maybe there's a SENO on his file. And you still find yourself wondering if any support is actually reaching him — because his homework hasn't gotten any easier, his mood hasn't lifted, and he still comes home some days feeling like he's behind everyone else.
But coping isn't the same as thriving.
This is what Dino Squad is here for.
WHAT IS DINO SQUAD?
After-school learning support. But built to be more than that.
Small groups after school, Monday to Friday, with SPED-trained teachers.
After-school support
Built around real, specific goals
Your child gets an individual plan with clear goals, and we review it regularly.
Targeting the skills that matter
Everything is aimed at skills your child can use back in the school classroom.
THE DINO SQUAD METHOD
Three areas of focus
Evidence-based programmes. All woven together into one plan built around each child.
Literacy and numeracy
Using Jolly Phonics and the Primary Numeracy Intervention Programme (PNIP).
Handwriting and typing
So getting ideas onto paper stops being the hard part.
Social skills
Like joining in, turn-taking, conversational skills, handling frustration, emotional regulation and reading the room.

2x a week: Mon / Wed OR
Tue / Thu

GROUP SIZE
Up to 6 children

FEES
From $360
Fees from $900 per term, following MOE Calendar (10 weeks/term)
Is this tuition?
No, although academic support is part of the programme. Tuition usually goes over what the school is teaching. Dino Squad focuses on the underlying skills that make school hard in the first place, like decoding words, number sense, motor control and social thinking. Our teachers are SPED-trained and understand how to adapt the teaching to help different types of learners.
