Diagnostic Learning Centre - This program provides short-term observation, diagnosis and explicit individual instruction in reading, writing and word study, along with the development of teaching and learning strategies related to Language Arts, organization and independence. These strategies are then presented to each student’s school team for transfer to the classroom setting. The target group of students is in grades three to six. The program is available to any student in the Winnipeg School Division who is referred by the home school and who meets the admission criteria. DLC classes are housed at Ashland and Wellington Schools. During the year there are four sessions of eight weeks each. Students attend either a morning or an afternoon session, spending the rest of the school day in their regular school classrooms. Programming can be provided in either English or French. French Sessions are offered at Ashland School as needed. more... See more text
