Safeguarding and pastoral care are the school's priority, creating a welcoming, safe, caring, and supportive environment where every student is valued. The program aims to prevent harm, protect students from harm, and provide ongoing support to students and staff when safeguarding concerns arise. The school fosters a positive, open community and encourages students to speak to someone they trust about anything that may trouble them. Counselling is available through the Student Services team to support students' social and emotional needs.
Children with specific learning needs are addressed on a case-by-case basis.
The Primary and Secondary ESL programs are designed to meet the needs of students whose English language knowledge may hinder academic attainment. ESL is delivered in small groups at different levels and aims to develop speaking, listening, reading and writing, following the Cambridge Primary English as a Second Language curriculum. In Secondary, students may also study an additional foreign language (Chinese, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian).
Safeguarding and pastoral care focus on students' wellbeing, health, and safety, with an emphasis on a safe, caring environment and supportive culture. Students are encouraged to find someone they trust to talk to, and the school maintains a vigilant, open approach to student welfare.
Safeguarding and child protection are integral policies, with a dedicated Safeguarding and Child Protection policy publicly available and implemented, alongside rigorous staff recruitment and screening practices to protect students.
