TherapeuticAI® supports a child in the classroom by giving teachers and the therapy team a shared, real-time picture of progress, turning everyday observations into structured insight so goals and supports are tuned to how each child learns. It amplifies a teacher's judgement rather than replacing it. AbilityScore® is part of Pinnacle’s developmental assessment. Diagnosis, where needed, requires an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

*When the right support meets a child where they learn, the classroom stops being a place of struggle and becomes a place of progress.*

## In short
TherapeuticAI® supports a child in the classroom by giving teachers and the therapy team a shared, real-time picture of how that child is progressing — turning everyday observations into structured insight, so goals, supports and lessons can be tuned to how the child actually learns. It does not replace the teacher; it amplifies your judgement with patterns drawn from millions of therapy sessions, helping you offer the right strategy at the right moment. The aim is a calmer, more inclusive classroom where each child is met at their own pace.

## How it helps in the classroom
- **Shared progress picture** — TherapeuticAI® brings the child's developmental goals and therapy strategies into one place, so a teacher can see what's being worked on (for example, attention, communication or self-regulation) and reinforce it during the school day.
- **Practical, child-specific strategies** — instead of generic advice, it surfaces approaches matched to the child's profile: how to break a task into smaller steps, when to offer a movement break, which prompts help that child stay engaged.
- **Pattern spotting over time** — small classroom observations (settling time, transitions, group participation) build into a trend the therapy team can act on, so a teacher's daily insight becomes part of the child's developmental measure.
- **Bridge between home, school and therapy** — everyone works from the same goals, so the strategies a child practises in therapy are gently echoed in the classroom and at home.
- **Strengths-first framing** — supports are built around what the child can do and enjoys, not around deficits, keeping the child confident and included among peers.

TherapeuticAI® is a support tool for collaboration and measurement — it informs teaching, it does not diagnose or label a child.

## Working well together
The most powerful support happens when the teacher's observations and the therapist's plan move in step. Keep notes simple and behaviour-focused ("settled faster after a movement break", "joined circle time today"), share them through the shared plan, and flag anything new or concerning to the therapy team early so support can be adjusted.

## The Pinnacle way
AbilityScore® is part of Pinnacle’s developmental assessment. Diagnosis, where needed, requires an appropriately qualified healthcare professional — never from an app, a classroom tool or an online form. TherapeuticAI® helps teachers and clinicians act on that profile day to day.
