State:
Question 6: A 4-year-old participant became eligible for the NDIS for developmental delay. They are fully participating in daily activities and socially and their family feel they no longer require support from the NDIS. What should happen next?
Answer: The early childhood partner should discuss voluntarily leaving the NDIS with the family and then support them with this.
Question 7: A participant who met eligibility under the early intervention requirements for developmental delay turns 6. Since becoming a participant, they have been diagnosed with autism, level 2. What should happen next?
Answer: They are referred for an eligibility reassessment and continue eligibility moving from meeting the early intervention requirements to disability requirements.

[Image not converted to Markdown – check the source PDF page for the actual content]
Facilitator Note:
Place the links to the resources into the chat if training is delivered virtually. The links will also be available in the learner workbook.
State:
The Developmental milestones and Early Years Framework and the National Quality Standards provide important information about developmental milestones for different age categories from birth to 5 years.
Whilst it is not a checklist of what all children should have reached by a particular age it provides examples of age-related milestones. This resource should be used as a source of information rather than a prescriptive checklist. You can use it to help in your understanding of child development when considering participant information. Additional information for children younger than 9 can be found on the Raising Children Network (external) website.
Paediatric Evaluation Disability Inventory Computer Adaptive Test (PEDI-CAT)
Display Slide 54
[Image not converted to Markdown – check the source PDF page for the actual content].png)
State:
The PEDI-CAT is a functional capacity assessment tool. There are two key applications of the PEDI-CAT:
-
To help determine functional capacity. The PEDI-CAT is used, together with other information to develop a picture of a child’s functional capacity compared to other children of a similar age across four domains: daily activities, mobility, social/cognitive and responsibility.
-
To help measure changes in functional capacity over time in response to early childhood intervention. A PEDI-CAT can be completed when an early childhood partner is gathering information to understand the developmental profile of a child.
OFFICIAL
ndis.gov.au 54 Page 355 of 438
FOI 24/25-0756 - DISCLOSURE LOG
It must be administered by the early childhood partner before the commencement of, and at the completion of early supports. The PEDI-CAT is also administered when supporting a family of a child younger than 7 to apply for the NDIS using a Functional Capacity Assessment case in PACE. Also, for a participant younger than 7 at the check-in prior to the plan reassessment due date a PEDI-CAT will need to be completed.
However, if the results of a recent PEDI-CAT are available, these can be recorded in PACE instead of completing a new PEDI-CAT.
Ages and stages questionnaire (ASQ)
Display Slide 55
The ASQ is a developmental screening tool that is used to gather information about a child’s development. It is used for children between the ages of one month to 5 and a half years.
Early childhood partners use the ASQ, together with other information, to help form an understanding of a child’s development. This includes when an early childhood partner is determining if a child has developmental delay or developmental concerns. Gathering such information will help an early childhood partner recommend the best way a child and family are supported. For example, through community and mainstream/other government supports and services, early supports or applying to the NDIS.

Declan case scenario
Display Slide 58
Declan is 3 years old and lives with his mother Andrea. He goes to childcare 2 days each week.
Andrea also takes Declan to playgroup once a week where she catches up with friends and Declan plays with other children. When at playgroup Andrea notices that Declan’s communication skills are not as well developed as other children his age, and he doesn’t get along as well with peers.

Display Slide 59
State:
Andrea and Declan meet with an early childhood partner, at their home. Andrea and the early childhood partner discuss Declan’s strengths and Andrea’s concerns about Declan’s development. They also complete an ecomap.
The early childhood partner observes Declan going about his usual activities at home and at childcare. She also talks to Declan’s educators and uses tools like the ASQ and PEDI-CAT. The information gathered helps the early childhood partner understand Declan’s development, strengths, and functional capacity.
The early childhood partner determines that Declan’s presentation is best described as developmental concerns and offers early supports, which Andrea accepts.
Declan case scenario continued 2
Display Slide 60
State:
The early childhood partner provides support through a range of activities during early supports.
For example, they:
- work with Andrea to develop and implement strategies at home and in the community to support Declan build his skills and increase his independence.
- visit Declan at childcare and talk about strategies with staff to ensure a consistent approach to supporting Declan.
- support Andrea to connect with community and mainstream supports such as a local community centre parent support group.
- deliver group workshops on social skills and communication skills.

After a few months Declan’s communication and social skills have improved. His speech is easier to understand and his interactions with other children have improved.
Andrea and childcare staff feel more confident in supporting Declan’s ongoing learning and development. Declan and Andrea no longer require early supports.
Early supports, delivered by the early childhood partner have sufficiently supported Declan and Andrea, without the need to apply to the NDIS.

Lucy case scenario
Display Slide 63
State:
Lucy is four years old. She really enjoys spending time with her younger brother, and her parents, Samantha and John in the backyard and going to the playground.
Samantha notices that Lucy needs help doing some things other children her age can do. She needs a lot more help than other children her age with things at home like the mealtime routine and dressing. She also needs a lot more support than other children her age at childcare with things like staying seated for story time and playing and communicating with friends. Samantha and Lucy’s educator discuss the concerns. Lucy’s educator suggests that Samantha contacts an early childhood partner.

State:
The early childhood partner meets with Samantha, John and Lucy at their preferred location, their home. The early childhood partner gathers information from various sources. For example, by speaking with Samantha and John and Lucy’s educators and observing Lucy at home and childcare. They also use tools like the ASQ and ecomap.
After meeting with Samantha, John, and Lucy several times the early childhood partner suggests that Samantha and John apply to the NDIS on behalf of Lucy because it is likely she meets the NDIS early intervention requirements for developmental delay.

ndis.gov.au 62 Page 363 of 438
State:
The early childhood partner also suggests that community support might help Lucy’s family. They put the family in touch with a local peer support group so they can meet other families of young children.
Lucy becomes eligible for the NDIS under the early intervention requirements and a NDIS plan is developed. The plan includes the goals Samantha and John have for Lucy and funding to support progress towards goals. The family use funding to get early intervention through a key worker who provides strategies to help Lucy develop her social, self-care and communication skills and increase her participation in daily routines and the community.
Lucy case scenario continued 3
Display Slide 66
State:
Lucy turns 6. Since becoming a participant, she has made a lot of progress towards the goals in her NDIS plans.
She started school and Samantha is pleased with the additional support she is getting with learning. Her teacher says she has settled in, taking part in all activities, and getting along well with her new friends. She is much more independent in completing daily routines at home too.
The key worker has worked with Samantha and John to develop strategies they can continue using at home to support Lucy.

They understand that Lucy no longer meets the early intervention requirements for developmental delay. They also understand that Lucy is unlikely to meet the early intervention requirements or disability requirements for any other reason. Lucy does not have an impairment that is likely to be permanent. However, they do not want Lucy to leave the NDIS.

State:
Work in pairs or small groups. Discuss how you would explain to Samantha and John why Lucy is no longer eligible for the NDIS? To support your discussion, you can refer to:
- Our Guideline - Applying to the NDIS (external)
- EC: Guide – Eligibility conversations for children younger than 6 with developmental delay (external)
Time: 5 minutes
Debrief: Here are some examples of the things that you should include in the conversation with Samantha and John when explaining why Lucy is likely to no longer be eligible for the NDIS: • A participant can only meet the early intervention requirements of the NDIS for developmental delay until they are 6 years old. As Lucy had turned 6, she cannot continue as a participant of the NDIS for developmental delay. • Discuss Lucy’s progress towards goals in her NDIS plan and her current functional capacity. Explain that Lucy is no longer likely to meet the early intervention requirements for developmental delay for reasons other than that she has turned 6. This is because what she can do now in everyday activities is similar to, or not significantly lower than what her same age peers can do. You could use:

State:
Lin is 3 and lives with her parents Simone and Thai. Lin becomes eligible for the NDIS under the early intervention requirements, for developmental delay.
Lin’s first plan is approved, and Simone and Thai speak with several early childhood intervention providers to choose one. They contact Nully Early Childhood Services (Nully). The early childhood partner and planner have provided Simone and Thai with information on best practice in early childhood intervention. Simone and Thai are pleased that the supports Nully offers is in line with best practice. They also feel that the early childhood professionals from this service understand Lin’s needs and are best able to support them.

State:
Over the last two years, Lin has made good progress towards the goals in her NDIS plan. It appears her presentation no longer meets the developmental delay definition in the NDIS Act 2013 (External).
This is because her functional ability in most areas now appears to be like her peers. The remaining concern her family have is that Lin is sometimes fussy with her food choices.
