THE DOVE CENTER
THE DOVE CENTER
The City School is renowned for fostering inclusive learning environments for children with diverse learning needs. The Dove Center, a new initiative, is specifically designed to support children requiring a more specialised learning environment than the mainstream classroom can offer. This environment enables every learner to thrive, develop skills, and reach their fullest potential.
At The Dove Center, we prioritise each child’s best interests. Our programming is meticulously crafted to create a vibrant and nurturing learning environment uniquely tailored to children with high support needs.
The Dove Center will open to children in August 2024 and is led by April Beresford. With 25 years of expertise as a disability specialist, April holds a Master’s degree in disability studies from Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario. She has dedicated her career to supporting high-needs children in international schools, residential facilities, and vocational schools. Over the years, she has developed extensive knowledge in art therapy, music therapy, positive behaviour support, and play-based interventions. These methods promote child engagement, enhance communication skills, and encourage social skill development. April’s holistic approach fosters independence and confidence in every individual she works with, ensuring they reach their full potential in diverse educational settings.
