Spend less time on planning and 

paperwork…and more time celebrating your students’ achievements

Are you in?

The Saskatchewan Student Services Collective provides the materials and tools you need to be organized, confident, and efficient, so you can get back to the reason you became a student services teacher: to help students succeed.

Let’s be honest. The role of the student services teacher is hard. It's even harder with the limited resources here in Saskatchewan. 

  • There never seems to be enough time.
    • You're torn between wanting the best for your students, following division directives, and building relationships with parents and caregivers.
  • You seek balance.
    • There is a constant struggle to meet the diverse needs of your students and having a life outside of school.
  • You're constantly searching for elusive resources.
    • You spend countless hours and hundreds of dollars searching social media sites and Teachers Pay Teachers looking for the "perfect" resource.
  • The administrative tasks are relentless.
    • You have a long to do list, a full inbox, and never-ending paperwork. 
  • You wear all the hats.
    • You're a teacher, social worker, administrator, coach and consultant. Yet, at the end of the day, no seems to know what your role is. Somedays you are unsure yourself.
  • You feel stressed, alone, and overwhelmed
 

But wait...what if it didn't have to be this way?

What if you could....

Hi, my name is Louise.

You might be wondering why an OT created the Saskatchewan Student Services Collective...

For the past 22 years, I have enjoyed the opportunity of working in schools as an occupational therapist, student services coordinator, and superintendent of programs and instruction. If you know me…you know I am passionate about education – especially inclusive education.

Over the past few years, I have observed a significant change in education. While there have always been students with additional needs, the pandemic has created a seismic shift. The diversity of needs in classrooms has increased, waitlists for assessments and services are now counted in years, not days or months; and, educators no longer report feeling “tired” and “ready for a holiday” – they report burnout, exhaustion and compassion fatigue. 

As a private OT, I receive daily phone calls from parents requesting services. One of their primary concerns: Their child is struggling in school.

Now, I will continue assessing students, writing reports, and consulting with schools. 

However, I know there is a better way. 

From my years in schools, I have gained tremendous respect for student services teachers. I know when they have the tools and resources they need, classroom teachers and educational assistants access what they need and children succeed.

The challenge is that student services teachers are often isolated, overstretched and overwhelmed.

My hope, through the Saskatchewan Student Services Collective is to reduce this isolation, support the health and well-being of student services teachers through an occupational therapy lens, and to share resources, tools and practices to make the role easier.
