How To Apply
To benefit from The Lionheart School program, children need to be able to work in small groups, at least a portion of the day. We look at the functional developmental levels of each child rather than their diagnosis; targeting developmental challenges with developmental solutions. Students are assessed to identify areas of strength and areas of concern by teachers and therapists. An inter-disciplinary comprehensive program is developed based on each student’s individual profile.
