Alcanta International College describes itself as a student-centred community and cites values of a “safe and supportive” learning environment; the school public news items also reference student-led activities such as a student council (STUCO), TOK Café events, debate competitions and drama productions that involve collaborative project work. These curricular and co-curricular activities (debate, drama, TOK Café, clubs) are used on the website to illustrate opportunities for students to practise collaboration, communication and leadership. The site does not list a separate named SEL programme or a designated SEL coordinator. Parents and applicants would need to contact the school for details about formal SEL curricula or staff roles.
The school does not publicly disclose information regarding Special Educational Needs (SEN) provision on its website. There are no pages or policy documents on the site that describe the types of SEN supported, specialist staff, an inclusion/learning-support department, or whether the school is a specialist SEN institution. If you need this information for admissions or placement, please contact the school directly for its current SEN policy and available support.
Alcanta International College's published curriculum pages show English-language pathways: the IGCSE provision includes English as a second language, and the IBDP subject list on the site includes English B at higher level alongside language offerings such as Chinese ab initio. These entries indicate the school teaches English as a language option within its formal qualifications, but the website does not describe a separate EAL support programme, specific EAL staff, or staged intervention pathways. For details about individual EAL assessment or in-class support, contact the school.
The school's mission and values emphasise a caring, student-focused community and a safe, supportive learning environment, and the website documents co‑curricular activities that contribute to student engagement. The website does not publish a dedicated mental-health or wellbeing policy, nor does it identify named counselling staff or an on-site counselling service. Because those specific provisions are not publicly listed, interested families should request the school's current mental-health/wellbeing policy and details of available counselling or pastoral staff directly.
The school's mission and values statement affirms that AIC aims to provide a safe and supportive learning environment, but the website does not publish a dedicated safeguarding or child-protection policy with named safeguarding contacts, procedures or statutory-compliance details. There is no public child-protection policy document or explicit safeguarding contact listed on the site. For formal safeguarding procedures, mandatory reporting arrangements, or the school's designated safeguarding lead, please contact AIC directly and request their safeguarding policy.
Alcanta International College (AIC) is an international secondary school in Guangzhou that was established in 2011. The school offers multiple pathways including the IB Diploma Programme, Cambridge IGCSE and A‑Level options alongside a Chinese senior‑high track; class size is described on the site as small-group teaching (about 20 students per class). AIC reports that around 20% of students are international, and the campus includes dormitory accommodation with scheduled boarding check‑ins. The website also highlights subject offerings across sciences, maths, languages, visual and performing arts, and lists extracurricular activities such as business competitions, student council and arts exhibitions. The school's site does not publish annual tuition figures or a total pupil count. (Sources: AIC website pages on About/Academics, IGCSE/IB program pages, facilities and admissions).
