Download the Guide


This guide is designed to help individuals in the school setting understand that Physical Therapy (PT) and Occupational Therapy (OT) are not substitutes for Physical Education and to increase their knowledge and skills on connecting with the physical education teachers in their schools and district. The Tips for Physical and Occupational Therapists in the School Setting to Promote Physical Education and Physical Activity will describe the reasons behind this to provide guidance on providing appropriate PT/OT services in the school setting and collaboratively working with the physical education teacher.
