The 丝瓜视频下载 is committed to helping all students reach their full potential, recognizing that the patterns and rhythms of learning are unique to each individual. Our schools respect these differences and strive to provide the most enabling learning environment possible for every student.

Special Education refers to educational programs and services that are continuously developed through assessment and evaluation to meet the needs of exceptional students. While these programs are based on the curriculum provided to all learners, they are adapted through adjustments in pace, delivery methods, learning environments, teaching strategies, and specialized supports to respond to each student鈥檚 strengths and needs.

With this in mind, we support the integration of students into inclusive learning environments where their academic, physical, spiritual, social, and emotional needs are met. Whenever possible, students are supported within their local school, learning alongside age-appropriate peers with the necessary accommodations and services in place.

When specific programs or supports cannot be provided within the home school, transportation is arranged to ensure access to other schools or centres equipped to meet those needs.

Role of the Parent

Parents are an integral part of the process throughout the stages of delivery of Special Education Programs and Services. Parents are invited to meet with the Special Education teacher to discuss the Individual Education Plan that will be individually formulated for their child. This plan identifies program goals and objectives. Parents are invited to participate in Identification and Placement meetings, and in the Review of Placement meeting which is held at least once a year. Parental input is necessary at each stage to improve student learning.

Our Philosophy

In 1995, the Board submitted this policy statement as part of its Annual Report on the Provision of Special Education Programs and Services to the Minister of Education and Training.聽 The annual review committee developed this statement of philosophy on integration from the Board鈥檚 Mainstreaming Policy document.

Philosophical Statement聽(from special education annual plan,聽2026)
