The school integrates social and emotional development into its British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum. One of the three prime areas of EYFS is Personal, Social and Emotional Development, which includes helping children develop a positive sense of themselves, form positive relationships, and manage feelings. Activities are designed to encourage respect for others, appropriate behaviour in groups, and confidence in abilities. Thematic, play-based learning fosters cooperation, sharing, and empathy. Teachers are UK-qualified and work closely with children in small class settings, allowing for consistent observation and support of social skills.
The school does not publicly disclose a dedicated SEN programme or department. It is not described as a specialist SEN institution. The EYFS approach allows teachers to adapt activities to meet individual developmental needs, but there is no published information specifying the types of SEN that can be supported.
The school does not publicly disclose information regarding EAL provision. English is the primary language of instruction, with additional Thai and Mandarin language programmes available.
The school does not publish specific mental wellbeing initiatives. However, the EYFS framework followed at Discovery Campus emphasises creating a friendly and homely environment, which is designed to support emotional security and confidence. Small class sizes enable teachers to observe and respond to children’s emotional needs as part of daily interactions.
The school does not publish detailed safeguarding or child protection policies in the provided materials. It does note that the enrolment fee includes full accident insurance coverage for all children.
