Kabojja International School is a flagship school in International Forums of Inclusion Practitioners, modeling best practices that reflect international standards. Through our dedication to diversity, equity, and learner-centered support, we strive to be a leading example of what truly inclusive schooling can look like—locally, regionally, and globally. The Learning Support program provides social and emotional support through school counsellors and a coordinated assessment team. The Learning Support team includes a class teacher, a special educator, a school counsellor, and the Learning Support Coordinator, with progress reported to parents through quarterly reports. The school maintains a supportive and inclusive community with dedicated and inspiring teachers who create classrooms where curiosity thrives, questions are encouraged, and every student is supported to reach their full potential. Counsellors are available to meet the social and emotional needs of students and their families.
Kabojja International School offers Cambridge, IB and BTEC curricula. Inclusive education ensures all learners, including those with identified Special Educational Needs, have a balanced academic and social curriculum that is fully accessible and included in all facets of school life. Learning differences may include social, academic, cognitive, behavioural, emotional, psychological and physical barriers and may be long or short term; materials and support are individualized. The school provides accessibility for movement, classroom differentiation (e.g., visual supports, flexible deadlines, scribing, modified assessments), ESL support, school counsellors, exam access, and referral processes to other professionals where necessary. The Assessment Team comprises a Class Teacher, a Special Educator, a School Counsellor and the Learning Support Services Coordinator, with a learning support aide as needed; admissions include screening for barriers and, where appropriate, the development of Individualised Education Plans with parents.
English as a Second Language (ESL) support is provided, including extra time learning English literacy in a smaller group setting. ESL is part of the materials and support offered to learners. The admissions process identifies language barriers and may involve tests to inform individualized plans. The Assessment Team coordinates EAL support, drawing on a Class Teacher, a Special Educator, a School Counsellor and a Learning Support Coordinator. Where necessary, referrals to other professionals are made to access additional resources for EAL learners.
School counsellors are available to meet the social and emotional needs of students and their families. The Learning Support policy includes a team that addresses mental health and social/emotional needs. If a student faces mental health challenges, parents will be notified if the student is at high risk or harming themselves or others, and parental liaison can be necessary for symptom reduction. The school maintains confidentiality of student information, with access restricted to relevant staff and procedures for sharing information followed only with parental approval. Support services and referrals are coordinated to promote ongoing wellbeing throughout the school community.
Kabojja International School is firmly committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all learners. We uphold a safeguarding culture underpinned by clear policies, professional practice and a shared responsibility among staff, parents, partners and visitors to ensure a safe, respectful and supportive environment for every child. In the event of safeguarding concerns, questions or disclosures, individuals should promptly reach out via email, and matters will be handled with the utmost care, confidentiality and in accordance with the School's safeguarding procedures.
