Specialized Programs
More than 800 students within Parkland School Division have diagnosed special needs. We provide a full range of specialized programs* that serve students with behavioural, communication, intellectual, learning and physical disabilities.
Wherever possible, first consideration is given to serving students with special needs through reasonable accommodations in a regular classroom setting in their designated neighbourhood school. All students identified with special needs are supported through the development of an Individualized Program Plan (IPP), implemented primarily by classroom teachers in cooperation with the child's parents.
