Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

Holistic Student Approach: The school provides personalized attention and guidance throughout schooling. Emotional, social, and cognitive development is nurtured from early years, with English immersion fostering social growth. A multilingual community integrates English and Spanish, promoting empathy, tolerance, and open-mindedness. Interactive learning places students at the center, developing leadership, teamwork, and critical thinking. The British curriculum supports holistic development to prepare students for a global future.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

The school has a specialized team that works closely with families to provide personalized support for students with special educational needs. In addition to qualified and support teachers in each class, the school has a speech therapist and a psychologist to support students throughout their education. The admissions process is inclusive and open to all applicants, regardless of disability.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

The school provides a bilingual environment integrating English and Spanish from early years. In Primary, students develop key skills in English within a bilingual environment. The environment is multilingual, fostering curiosity and creativity by integrating English and Spanish. The school prepares students for international exams, such as the IGCSE.

Mental Wellbeing

Safeguarding policy commits to safeguarding and promoting the wellbeing, health (physical and mental) and safety of students, creating an open, safe, supportive culture. The school provides a school nurse during school hours. The policy recognizes contextual safeguarding and includes proactive education on protection. The responsibilities of staff include recognizing abuse, reporting concerns, maintaining confidentiality, and keeping students safe.

Safeguarding

The safeguarding policy applies to all staff, contractors, visitors and volunteers. The center designates a Child Welfare and Wellbeing Coordinator and outlines staff responsibilities to maintain a safe environment, handle disclosures, protect confidentiality, and coordinate with local authorities. It covers online safety, information sharing, and appropriate referrals to external services.
