HOPE International School

HOPE states its curriculum aims to develop students “intellectually, physically, socially, [and] emotionally” and includes a Health and Wellbeing curriculum in Middle School alongside Christian Perspectives lessons. Preschool follows the UK EYFS framework, which lists personal, social and emotional development as a core area of learning. The school also publishes policies for responsible behaviour and anti‑bullying as part of its policy suite. Specific staff roles for SEL (for example, named counsellors or pastoral leads) are not detailed on the public site.

HOPE's curriculum page says “special programs will be developed for those with additional needs,” and the school publishes an Inclusion Policy in its policies list. The policies index includes an Inclusion Policy (3280) and related documents, indicating the school has formal guidance on supporting additional needs. The public site does not list detailed categories of special educational needs the school can support, nor does it state that HOPE is a specialist SEN institution. For specifics about which needs are supported or available specialist staff, the school asks enquiries to be made to the Compliance Coordinator.

HOPE states instruction is delivered in English and that students are expected to communicate in English; it also notes an English Language Learners (ELL) policy with a maximum of 25% ELL students per class. The curriculum and high‑school pages show ELL/ELL‑type classes are offered and that ELL proficiency is considered for progression into IGCSE/secondary programs. The school therefore operates ELL provision but does not publish detailed course outlines, staffing numbers, or specific EAL intervention programs on the public site. For enrolment and proficiency requirements the admissions information should be consulted.

HOPE's published materials reference a Health and Wellbeing curriculum and list a formal “Crisis Care and Counselling” policy in the school policies index, indicating a framework for supporting student wellbeing and crisis response. The Safeguarding page also states the school is committed to protecting children and to educating the community about child harm, which links to wellbeing and safety practices. The public site does not provide detailed descriptions of counselling staff, schedules, or external mental‑health providers. For information about available counselling personnel or referral pathways, families are directed to contact the school.

HOPE publishes a Safeguarding page that states the school commits to protecting children, collaborates with the Child Safety & Protection Network (CSPN), and requires screening and codes of conduct for staff, volunteers and external providers. The site links to a full Safeguarding Policy and an online reporting form and says all child safety concerns are reported to the Director for assessment by the school's Child Safety Team. The policies index also lists a formal Safeguarding (Child Safety) policy and related codes of conduct for employees and volunteers. Contact details for policy queries and a Compliance Coordinator are provided on the policies page.
