Pastoral Care addresses social and emotional learning by focusing on self-awareness and emotional intelligence and helping students interact with others positively. It reinforces kindness, respectful communication, and belonging within a caring, global STEAM community. It also emphasizes a safe, supportive environment where students can take risks and learn from mistakes.
The Learning Support Department works with classroom teachers and parents to support children with special needs' development. Upon enrollment, this process includes Individual Education Plans (IEPs) and meetings. Services available include withdrawal SEN lessons, push-in lessons, and formal monitoring with IEPs. Lessons are differentiated for gifted and able students; if a child is formally identified as gifted by a certified educational psychologist, they are eligible for SEN withdrawal.
The school welcomes students for whom English is an additional language.
