About Me
Octavia Stewart
I am an Educational Psychologist based in Blackheath with a strong foundation in teaching, which provides me with a deep understanding of classroom expectations. My extensive experience spans working with learners, teachers, and parents. Currently, I am part of the School-Based Support Team (SBST) at a school in Randburg, where I collaborate closely with teachers to develop strategies for students requiring additional support. My role involves conducting psycho-educational assessments, guiding classroom accommodations, behaviour management, and individualized education plans. I am deeply attuned to the challenges faced within educational settings and committed to offering support and guidance to foster inclusive learning environments.
