Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

Mentoring and counselling support are provided to students. The Student Council offers student leadership and representation. Extracurricular activities enhance personal development. Community Service opportunities are part of student life. School events foster a sense of belonging and engagement.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

Students will have special educational needs during their educational journey. Targeted support and early intervention help students make significant progress and return to regular classes at their grade level. A SEN Coordinator (SENCo) coordinates provision, with teachers and teaching assistants working under the SENCo. The school aims to raise awareness, identify needs early, and involve parents and external specialists to provide appropriate support while ensuring SEN students can participate in all school activities. External support may include medical or educational professionals when required.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

Non-English-speaking children may be admitted into the Play Group, Preschool, Prekindergarten and Kindergarten with the expectation that they will gain proficiency in English through lessons and interactions. Students entering Grades 1 and above are assessed for English proficiency, and admission may be denied if English is not sufficiently grasped. Probationary admission may be offered to those with rudimentary English, with limited tutoring to support improvement.

Mental Wellbeing

Mentoring and counselling support for students promotes mental wellbeing. The program includes access to school counsellors and guidance for personal and social development. Students may engage in activities and programs that support emotional resilience. A supportive school environment aims to help students cope with academic and social challenges.
