Special needs schools are different from regular schools in that they cater to students with education challenges. They’re designed, staffed, and have the resources to provide support for students who have challenges that interfere with learning.
These schools offer a wide range of approaches and services to support students with special needs. This may include individualized learning, one-on-one support, small classes, resource rooms, and learning aids.
There are two main ways schools provide special education support. First, there’s the environment or setting in which the support is delivered. Special needs education can be offered in a dedicated special needs school or class, an integrated class, a withdrawal class, or a regular class with resource support or indirect support.
Second, there’s the form of support that’s offered. Most private special needs schools support students through accommodations, modifications, and remediations. These are normally stipulated in an Independent Education Plan (IEP), which spells out a child’s learning needs, services the school will provide, and how progress will be measured.
Ideally, modifications won’t be needed. Changing what’s taught and lowering expectations can sometimes cause students problems later on, for instance, when they move on to a new school.
Schools vary in what type of special education support they provide. They also vary in terms of which special needs they support. The main types of special needs supported by schools are learning, developmental, behavioural/emotional, and physical disabilities.
Many special education schools provide support for one or more of these types of special needs (and others, such as ADHD). Other less common special needs supported by some schools include speech and language disorders and chronic illnesses.
Private schools for special needs are a great option for many kids. They have many benefits. They also, though, raise some concerns. The pros and cons of special education vary based on the type of program, supports offered, approaches used, and more.

Meanwhile, schools with part-time special needs programs (for instance, schools with integrated classes) tend to be cheaper. These schools have annual tuition that often ranges from $15,000 to $50,000.
In Canada, there are many types of funding and aid available for private schools for children with special needs. The main sources of funding are
