Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

IAE offers a comprehensive Student Support program that promotes each student's academic, emotional, and social development. A multidisciplinary team collaborates to provide integrated support across the learning journey. Psychologists assigned to each section focus on emotional and social well-being, conducting individual psychological evaluations, crisis interventions, and socio-emotional skills workshops, with guidance to families and teachers. Speech and Occupational Therapists provide targeted support for language, communication, motor skills, sensory integration, and daily living activities. Special Needs Teachers develop individualized intervention plans (PEI), adapt curricula, and work with psychologists and families to ensure inclusive learning. We offer an inclusive education model and an integrated PEI, making IAE a unique community resource.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

IAE follows an inclusive education model and offers an Integrated Individualized Educational Program (PEI) integrated into the standard curriculum. A multidisciplinary team supports this approach, including Special Needs Teachers, Psychologists, Speech Therapists, and Occupational Therapists. Special Needs Teachers develop individualized intervention plans, tailor teaching strategies, and adapt the curriculum to facilitate access to learning. The team collaborates with families and teachers to ensure coordinated support for each student's development. This combination provides targeted, personalized learning for students with diverse needs.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

English literacy development begins in IAE Preschool. The Letters and Sounds program is implemented to develop phonological awareness. The program teaches reading and writing in English from an early age. Family involvement is encouraged to reinforce learning at home. The curriculum integrates English language development across the early years.

Mental Wellbeing

IAE provides mental wellbeing support through a multidisciplinary Student Support team. Psychologists assigned to each section focus on emotional and social well-being, conducting individual evaluations, crisis interventions, and emotional support, and they run socio-emotional skills workshops with guidance to families and teachers. Speech Therapists and Occupational Therapists support broader developmental goals for effective participation in learning. The team collaborates with teachers to ensure a supportive and nurturing classroom environment.
