The Learning Support Programme comprises a team of a Counsellor, Special Educator and EAL Educator. The programme promotes inclusive educational practice through collaboration among parents, classroom teachers and administrators. The Learning Support team uses collaborative teaching approaches to motivate the learner to reach their maximum potential. It provides students with skills and strategies based on their Individualized Education Plan (IEP) to enhance learning. The school community is sensitized about the needs, strengths and challenges of learners and the programme recommends differentiation strategies for learning needs and styles.

English as the language of instruction is central to NESISM. The EAL programme is designed to support multilingual learners to access grade-level content and participate in social and academic conversations in English. Push-in and, in some cases, pull-out support helps learners access the mainstream curriculum. English is the primary language across the PYP, MYP and DP, and the preferred language of instruction is English. Hindi is offered as a compulsory second language, and French or German is available as an additional second language.
