Special Education

The Resource Centre at King Christian School

Our Resource Centre is an integral part of the complete educational program at King Christian School. The aim of the program is to build self-confidence and teach students the skills and strategies necessary to overcome and/or cope with learning difficulties, so that they too, can serve God and others to the best of their abilities.

The Resource Centre offers the following services and programs:

• Assessment/ testing / diagnosis of learning strengths and weaknesses for all students in a variety of exceptionalities including slow learners, learning disabilities, gifted, emotional and behavioural.
• Teaching individual or small groups of students in The Learning Centre.
• Referrals to outside agencies and support services in the community.
• Information about a variety of special education topics and issues.

Both teachers and parents may make referrals to The Learning Centre. Students are scheduled in The Resource Centre according to need and the time available. The Learning Centre has many components: the students, the parents, the teachers, the program, and the resources. All of these work together to help the students develop their talents, promote a feeling of self-acceptance and find their value as child(ren) of God.
