JPIS promotes social-emotional learning (SEL) through its wellness programme. Minds Matter, an initiative with Mpower guided by Dr. Zirak Marker, fosters mental health literacy and provides counseling across grades. The curriculum provides additional support during crises such as the Covid-19 pandemic and creates a safe space for students to discuss fears and anxieties. It promotes socio-emotional competence and holistic development through regular sessions on self-management, relationships, and emotional intelligence. Reflective activities address physical, mental and social health to enhance overall achievement. The school emphasises open communication to support early intervention and the wellbeing of all students.
JPIS follows a person-centred approach for learners with special educational needs. Psycho-educational assessments guide identification and the school develops Individual Education Plans (IEP) and Individual Learning Plans (ILP) when required. When behavioral or emotional concerns arise, the school counselor coordinates with the homeroom teacher for supportive interventions. The school provides environmental accommodations and reasonable adjustments, such as easy accessibility, readers, and separate classroom settings, with extended time allowances (10%, 25%, 50%) as needed. Inclusive assessment arrangements and access provisions are made for IGCSE and other examinations, to support students with substantial and long-term disabilities. The school emphasises staff collaboration and ongoing planning to meet diverse learning needs.

ESL classes are available for students not proficient in English, and after-school support classes and weekend workshops help learners improve English proficiency.
