The Student Services Program is designed to support students with mild learning differences. Brent's goal is to identify students’ individual learning needs, explore strategies on their behalf, and provide them with effective interventions and support. Students’ specific needs are generally met within the parameters of the existing curriculum, with minor accommodations or modifications. The full-inclusion model allows support teachers to work alongside the main classroom teachers. Support significantly decreases as students move up the grade levels since self-management skills are developed and demands for independent learning increase. Space is limited and each applicant is considered through Admissions on a case-by-case basis.
