Arbor School is a sensory-based school. We understand the importance of meeting the sensory needs of our students. Regulation of our sensory system allows for better focus and learning.

The importance of sensory processing

A Sensory-based Approach

All classrooms at The Arbor School are set up to meet the needs of the students with:

  • Relaxed atmosphere with alternative seating
  • Space to stand
  • Quiet spaces
  • Natural lighting
  • Time to learn and process
  • Visual and hands-on learning activities
  • No high-stakes testing

By providing an atmosphere of learning that meets the sensory needs of our students, they are better able to learn and progress.
