The Learning Support Department enables these children to overcome barriers to learning quickly and easily thus reaching their full academic, social and emotional potential. Greensteds uses Learning Support or Inclusion and enrichment rather than SEN. Identification and assessment of learners are carried out early to maximize learning. Teachers support pupils through differentiation, or through individual, small-group or in-class support from Kindergarten through Senior School. If necessary, withdrawal from a second language may be recommended to address specific learning needs.
The school uses Learning Support or Inclusion and enrichment rather than traditional SEN. Greensteds is non-selective at entry. Identification and assessment of learners are carried out early so that appropriate intervention can begin within the mainstream environment. The teachers support pupils through differentiation or one-to-one, small-group, or in-class support, with the option of withdrawal from a second language if needed. This support is available from Kindergarten through to Senior School.
English as an Additional Language (Beginners) is offered for students who join Greensteds with little or no English. These are independent packages designed to facilitate the child's initial inclusion into the social and academic life of the school.
The Medical Centre provides 24/7 care, led by a Clinical Officer and staffed by two nurses. Children are cared for on-site or transferred for treatment in the hospital when needed, and the Health Care of pupils is communicated to parents. The Dorm Master/Mistress and Tutors provide pastoral care, academic monitoring and support the cultural, physical and spiritual enrichment of each child, with regular communication within the school and with parents. Students also have a healthy, nutritious and varied diet.
