I have a 6 year disabled daughter(Kate) who uses a wheelchair, physically disabled, developmentally delayed, doesn't communicate. She attends the Special needs base at our local school, but could go to a special needs school. We are looking into moving to Perth and would like some advice on schooling, medical etc and for the future would she be eligible for disability benefits etc( only asking coz she will never be able to look after herself and I need to know what the future would hold for her in Australia). She gets the highest rate of DLA in the UK.
Thank you for any help or advice you can offer. We need to know as much as possible before we make such a life changing decison. What are the schools and therapists like?
