Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

The learning spaces are centred around the child, promoting holistic growth and self-direction in all learning areas. This includes cultivating work ethic and mental and social competencies such as focus, self-discipline, time management, conflict resolution, independence, and the ability to work independently and collaboratively. The school places emphasis on social, moral, and emotional development as part of preparing children to be socially and emotionally prepared for real life.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

The school has a Child Psychologist and a Speech Therapist on staff to observe and respond to each child's individual needs.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

The school offers English, Spanish, German, Russian and Bulgarian as foreign languages.
