INTRODUCTION


Welcome to the website for Arrowsmith School® and the Arrowsmith Program®.

Arrowsmith School and Arrowsmith School Peterborough are privately owned co-educational and non-denominational day schools that are dedicated to helping students with learning disabilities.  Arrowsmith School in Toronto was established in 1980 and Arrowsmith School Peterborough opened in 2005.

The Arrowsmith Program is founded on neuroscientific research and 30 years of experience demonstrating that it is possible for students to strengthen the weak cognitive capacities underlying their learning dysfunctions through a program of specific cognitive exercises.  The Arrowsmith Program identifies, intervenes and strengthens the weak cognitive capacities that affect learning.  Students are able to capitalize on their increased learning capacities and after a three or four year program can function without special education assistance or program accommodations.
