The school supports inclusive education so every learner can access learning in a safe, respectful, and supportive environment. It provides teaching and assessment arrangements to remove barriers and meet students' needs without lowering expectations. The Special Needs Department uses a four-stage approach for students with additional needs: assessment, planning, implementation, and review, involving the manager, coordinator, supervisor, teachers, and guidance staff. If a student requires additional support during admissions or in learning, the department assesses needs and may obtain external advice or services. An Individual Learning Plan or Individualized Behavior Plan may be developed, and progress is regularly reviewed and communicated with parents.
English language support is provided as ESL (English as a Second Language) and ASL through dedicated language support teachers. Diagnostic reading and writing assessments in English and Arabic are conducted at the start of each academic year to identify language needs. ESL/ASL teachers work with classroom teachers and language coordinators to plan for individual cases. Language support strategies are implemented via push-in or pull-out settings depending on the student's needs. When progress is evident, the student is withdrawn from support and language progress is recorded in the student portfolio.
