The Dunblaine School
Quality Education for Children with Learning Disabilities
For information or to discuss admission to The Dunblaine School, please call the principal, Michele Braida, at 416 483 9215 during school hours. Mrs. Braida may also be reached via email, or you can fill in the form below to request further information.
Generally, applications are made for the following school year; however, we are currently accepting applications if space is available and placement of your child has been approved following interviews.
The Dunblaine School accepts students on an individualized basis, taking into account the programs being offered, the student’s abilities and needs, and the opportunity for progress in our school setting.
Documentation Requirements
In order to enable each child to receive an individualized learning experience, your application involves the review of a psycho-educational assessment which must be obtained by a certified psychologist experienced with the LD population. To be current and useful, the documentation must have been completed within the last three years for children nine years and older.
We understand that the validity of IQ of children under the age of nine is uncertain and thus is not mandatory to this process, but can still be considered. The report should include:
-
A specific diagnosis of a learning disability based on comprehensive tests such as the Weschler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC), Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale (The Binet), Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT) and the Woodcock.
-
Current scores for all tests
-
Recommendations for accommodations, including rationales
-
Relevant educational, developmental, and medical history
-
A clinical summary ruling out emotional problems, cultural/linguistic differences, visual, hearing or motor impairments, and/or intellectual delay.
Financial Assistance
Payment options are available for tuition fees, as are bursary opportunities. Further information regarding financial assistance may be obtained from the principal.
