Description & Services
Information | Bridgeway Academy is a Designated Special Education Facility in the province of Nova Scotia, providing individualized programming for students who have been diagnosed with learning disabilities (LD) and/or Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The school has operated for the past 30 years with the idea that people with learning disabilities can learn and do anything if taught in a way that works for them. When a student is accepted to Bridgeway, the school works with the family, psychologist and other professionals to develop an individualized program. Initially, the focus is on remediation, but as the student's skills improve, the school will adjust the program and increase curriculum delivery. When a student's skills are back up to the level of their peers, Bridgeway Academy works with the student and the family to help transition them back to the public school or post-secondary school system. |
