CDM · Centre for Motor Development

What is it?

We, the psychomotor and occupational therapists in Section 2 of the Centre for Motor Development (CDM), are responsible for the systematic screening of motor difficulties and providing motor support to children in cycle 1.2.

In order to meet the motor challenges of the school, it is important that motor skills are developmentally appropriate.

Cooperation with parents and all school staff is also an important part of our child support activities. In addition to the possible motor support, personality development is also positively influenced. Our support is based on the strengths and interests of the children.

How to proceed?

  • Information sheet for parents (cycle 1.2) at the beginning of the school year
  • Observations at school (screening consisting of 14 motor exercises)

What do we observe?

  • General motor skills (balance, general coordination, ...)
  • Fine motor skills (cutting, colouring, gluing, ...)

In case of preventive support, the following steps are proposed:

  • Discussion with parents and school staff.
  • With the parents' consent, we offer preventive motor support (individually or in groups).

What are the costs?

Our offer is funded by the "Ministry of Education, Children and Youth" and is therefore free of charge.
