OUR APPROACH
We empower each child to realize their full potential through a holistic approach.
Learning2learn Centre is a neurodiversity affirming learning centre.
We focus on enrichment for all our students through the use of enjoyable learning experiences constructed around students’ powerful interests, learning styles, and preferred modes of expression.
We use best practices suitable for understanding neuro-divergent students such as PACED. The PACED strategy requires that we practice the following...
Presume competence even when we don’t see or hear it yet
We approach each child with the believe that they possess the capacity to understand, learn and make progress.
Accept other means of communication for non-speakers
We recognize and embrace alternative means of communication for non-speakers. Communication goes beyond verbal expression, so acknowledge diverse modes of interaction.
Create routines
Consistent routines provide a sense of predictability and stability, offering a framework that can be particularly beneficial for students who thrive on structure
Encourage reading by exploring audio/video
Students who can’t read yet are encouraged to fall in love with books by listening to audio books.
Don’t make unrealistic restrictions on movement
We avoid imposing unrealistic restrictions on movement. Movement is an integral component of engagement and focus for special students
