What is special needs education?

Students with behavioral, intellectual, physical, or other exceptional needs may require special educational assistance ("special ed") to benefit fully from the school experience. This can include the help of an educational assistant in the classroom or extra tutorial or remedial help outside of the class.

Schools offer alternative education and specialized support for students with any kind of learning difficulties, physical disability or handicap, behavioural disorder, or mental disability or communicative disorder. Schools are often well-equipped to support children with many types of issues, like autism, ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) or ADD (attention deficit disorder), Asperger's syndrome, and advanced learning abilities. Ontario special needs private schools help students in ways unspecialized schools cannot.

Individualized Education Programs (IEP) 

Private schools offer Individual Service Plans (ISPs), very much the same as Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) found in the public system.  The ISP details specialized services the school offers within their existing system.

Questions to ask any school you're considering

Q: How will I pay the school's tuition?

A: You have multiple financial planning tools, such as budgeting or trust funds that would be taxed significantly less than your income. (Learn more about tax breaks for private school parents.) There are also other external resources. Four such options are common. First, you could search for community support, as plenty of small communities will assist you in funding your child's education through helpful organizations (e.g., The Rotary Club). Next, you could apply for a medical tax break for enrolling your child in an Ontario special needs school. Third, you may apply for scholarships and bursaries, a process that you should begin 16 months before your planned time of enrolment. Finally, if you send your child to one of the provine's faith-based special education private schools, tuition may count as a charitable donation for which you will receive a tax receipt.

Consult our tips on how to pay for private school for more information. You can also read more about the costs of special needs schools.

Q: Will my child with special needs fall behind in a private school?

A: Special needs private schools in Ontario have smaller class sizes than other types of schools. The class may resemble a supportive learning group. As such, your child's instructors will be able to monitor his or her behaviour problems or other unique needs. Any child that falls behind will have the opportunity to catch up through extra help sessions—a staple of private schools.

Q: Will my child with special needs have a chance to socially interact with other students?

A: Yes! First and foremost, small class sizes foster participatory classroom environments. Second and perhaps most importantly, private schools with special education, in Ontario and elsewhere, tend to offer a plethora of extracurricular programs or activities. This means your son or daughter will have the chance to interact with other students who share some common interest like chess or dancing.

Q: How do I choose a special needs school?

A: Here are a few useful tips on finding the best special needs school, in Ontario or elswhere:
  • Ask a lot of questions. Speak to all stakeholders in a school (e.g., students, parents, teachers, administrators).
  • Try to imagine whether your child will flourish in that school.
  • Let a school's admissions team decide whether there is a fit. Provide as much information as you can about your child, so the school could determine whether it is the best match for your family.
