Dunblaine School is a not-for-profit, independent school in midtown Toronto, dedicated exclusively to supporting students with diagnosed learning disabilities. Our mission is to create a learning environment where differences are understood, strengths are celebrated, and challenges are addressed with skill, compassion, and evidence-based strategies.

We understand that students with learning disabilities require a different approach to achieve success. That’s why we use benchmark assessments, progress monitoring, and research-backed instructional methods to pinpoint each student’s needs, track their progress, and adjust instruction in real time. Every child receives a personalized learning plan designed to build academic skills while also fostering confidence and independence.

Our small class sizes ensure that each student benefits from one-on-one attention, targeted interventions, and consistent feedback. Specialized instruction is supported by professional services such as occupational therapy, speech-language therapy, and academic coaching, creating a complete network of support that addresses academic, social, and emotional development.

We recognize that learning disabilities often affect more than classroom performance they can influence self-esteem, peer relationships, and motivation. At Dunblaine, we work to strengthen not only literacy and numeracy skills, but also resilience, problem-solving abilities, and self-advocacy. Students are encouraged to take risks in a safe and understanding environment where mistakes are seen as essential steps in learning.

From our Apple technology-integrated classrooms and Maker Space to structured social skills programming, every aspect of Dunblaine is designed to meet the needs of students who learn differently. Our dedicated staff, many with expertise in special education, understand how to unlock potential where others may have seen limits.

If your child has a learning disability and thrives in an environment that adapts to their unique needs, Dunblaine School is here to guide their journey. Together, we can help them achieve academic growth, personal confidence, and a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
