Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

SCIA's public materials describe a holistic education approach that centers the learner and integrates social and emotional development into general well-being. The school's assemblies regularly address topics such as empathy, social responsibility, teamwork, bullying, healthy relationships, and self-discipline. The Play Network enrichment hub offers activities that promote social integration, character development, and leadership, extending SEL beyond classroom learning. The Education and Career Guidance (ECG) team supports students in making informed choices about education and future pathways, contributing to well-being and maturity. The school's stated values—balanced development, resilience, integrity, and teamwork—underpin its SEL-focused ethos.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

The school does not publicly disclose detailed information about Special Educational Needs (SEN) provision. A publicly shared LinkedIn post announces a collaboration with OrbRom Learning Support Center to strengthen inclusive learning and support for learners with diverse needs. SCIA presents itself as a holistic, values-driven institution rather than a dedicated SEN specialist; no explicit SEN unit or catalog of supported needs is described in public materials. The collaboration with a learning support partner suggests some level of inclusive education activity, though specifics are not published. The school emphasizes a broad, holistic education framework rather than a standalone SEN program.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

English is the main language of instruction at SCIA. Primary students also study Chinese and Khmer, indicating a multilingual approach within the curriculum. Public materials do not describe a separate English as an Additional Language (EAL) programme; explicit EAL staff or targeted EAL delivery is not listed in the available public content. The high school materials show Cambridge English and language-related subjects as part of the standard curriculum, but do not document dedicated EAL support. Overall, explicit EAL-program provisions are not clearly disclosed in public information.

Mental Wellbeing

Physical Education is described as contributing to physical, mental, and social health and overall well-being. Silent reading and weekly assemblies provide opportunities to focus on topics such as empathy, social responsibility, teamwork, and self-discipline, which support mental wellbeing. Play Network emphasizes social integration, leadership development, and a healthy lifestyle, fostering mental and emotional growth through extracurricular activities. The holistic education framework places emphasis on social and emotional aspects as part of the learner's development. ECG guidance and the school's values further support students' wellbeing and resilience.

Safeguarding

The school does not publicly disclose safeguarding and child protection policies in available public materials. Public mentions of safeguarding-related topics are limited to broader SEL and wellbeing activities; there is no explicit safeguarding policy page or statement visible in the public content. SCIA has engaged in partnerships that suggest support for inclusive learning and student welfare, but detailed safeguarding procedures or leads are not published online. If you require safeguarding specifics, please contact the school directly for the most current policy details.
