Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

The holistic development of students is central to the CSS educational project, with curriculum learning conducted in a climate of respect, responsibility, and friendship. The Convivencia Escolar (coexistence) team coordinates school climate initiatives to support students, led by Natalia Yáñez as convivencia coordinator.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

The Department of Apoyo Escolar (DAE) accompanies students emotionally and psycho-pedagogically at all levels, working closely with teachers, guardians and families. The psychopedagogue is Geraldine Ossandón and the psychologist is Karen Espinosa.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

Students graduate with multilingual competencies; they can speak three to four languages and navigate diverse cultures. In secondary school, English is taught as a subject as part of the curriculum.

Mental Wellbeing

The Department of Apoyo Escolar provides emotional and psycho-pedagogical support to students at all levels. Convivencia Escolar coordinates efforts to maintain a climate of respect, responsibility and friendship.

Safeguarding

The school maintains a Plan Integral de Seguridad Escolar (PISE) as part of the internal regulations to ensure safety. Protocols address bullying, abuse, incidents of violence, and emergencies. A Canal de denuncias (reporting channel) is available for complaints, which may be anonymous and with identity protections.
