The Student Support Team is a multidisciplinary group that meets regularly to develop strategies to assist students experiencing academic, social or emotional challenges, to collaborate with teachers and parents on these strategies, and to initiate interventions that address areas of concern. Members include classroom teachers, learning support specialists, EAL specialists, counselors, a school psychologist, speech and language pathologists, occupational therapists, and school principals or vice principals.
JIS enrolls a limited number of students requiring learning support. The Learning Support Program provides support for students with identified learning needs, with a continuum of services and individualized plans developed in collaboration with counselors, families and staff. The JIS Learning Center offers inclusive education for students with moderate-to-significant learning needs and global developmental delays.
The English as an Additional Language (EAL) program supports students whose first language is not English and who have not yet achieved proficiency in reading, writing, speaking and listening. EAL teachers provide materials, design programs, co-teach, and model classroom strategies to support students within their mainstream classes.
Counseling, therapeutic, and psychological services are provided; school counselors, therapists, and psychologists work with students, parents and teachers to support learning and personal growth. A School Therapist is available at the Cilandak Campus, with services including intervention and individual therapeutic support, as well as parent and teacher education on relevant topics.
The Child Safeguarding Policy protects students and seeks to provide a safe environment; JIS endorses the Convention on the Rights of the Child and distributes the policy annually to all parents and applicants. All faculty and staff are mandated to report concerns and follow standard procedures; cases may be reported to employers, consulates, child protection agencies, and local authorities as appropriate.
