Situated on Danforth Avenue in Toronto, Ontario, The Claremont School is the only elementary co-educational school dedicated exclusively to the teaching of students with dyslexia. We offer a tailored curriculum designed by a Fellow of the Orton-Gillingham Academy for specific and intense remediation of reading, writing, and math skills. Our aim is to empower dyslexic students and prepare them for success in the mainstream once strong foundational knowledge is acquired, and to do so in the most effective and efficient manner.
The Claremont School understands the emotional, academic and social needs of the dyslexic student and uses a curriculum created specifically for this community of pupils.
