FAQ

How will you deal with challenges?

Our first priority is to build a healthy, genuine, and trustworthy relationship with students, their families, and service providers. We approach challenges as an opportunity for us to bond & grow through:

  • acknowledgement that challenges happen to everyone
  • communication
  • being a mentor they feel confident to turn to
  • recognizing that every day can bring new opportunities

What are the teacher qualifications?

Formal education in mental health and trauma-informed practices are a requirement at Beechwood Brainery. We employ staff with experience and personal knowledge with students that need support, including: 

  • ECEs
  • Child & Youth workers
  • Recreation Therapists
  • Social Service Workers

Will my child be sent home?

We do our due diligence to prevent and resolve conflicts. Our experience in de-escalation gives students many tools to cope and resolve situations. Sending a child home is always a last resort.

How many children are in a class?

Each class has a limited number of attendees to provide direct support to each student. Typically, class sizes average 10 students.

Is there a locked contract?

There is no locked contract. However, we offer a monthly payment term for all families. Registration is open throughout the school year, and intake can happen at any time.
