Le Sallay Academy
Special needs catered for
Le Sallay International Academy employs a blended learning model that combines boarding sessions with online instruction allowing students with diverse learning needs to obtain a high-quality education adapted to their goals.
Specialist facilities
We serve children who need highly-customized learning solutions often unavailable where they live. Four times a year students travel to our easily accessible campus and the rest of the time they study from home. Our team includes teachers trained in SEN programs. With a 5:1 student-teacher ratio and customized learning plans, we accommodate a wide range of learning needs, including Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, ADHD, Autism / Asperger’s Syndrome, Behavioural / Emotional / Social Difficulties and Disorders, as well as Gifted and Twice exceptional Children
Support services provided
We work with students and their families to determine the desired learning outcomes and identify the individual areas for growth. Our school year starts with an assessment week where every child is given an opportunity to engage with different subjects. Based on the results of their work, an individualized learning plan is developed and amended as needed throughout the year.
Our curriculum model is based on increased depth and complexity. Instead of chasing grade-level standards, we expand the curriculum encouraging students to explore more challenging topics. Every subject is taught at several levels to meet the students exactly where they are.
The individual learning plans start with a core curriculum in English, literature, math, history, sciences and world languages and can be enriched with one-on-one classes and specialized interventions.
Our goal is to make sure that there are no limits on what a child can learn in their areas of strength, while also making sure they are supported in areas where they may still be developing.
