SEL is embedded in Sharjah English School's pastoral care, with social and emotional learning cultivated in the curriculum; the Secondary Pastoral Care page notes a House System with five mixed houses, a vertical tutor group structure, and a Head of House responsible for students' academic and social-emotional development, plus weekly Moral Education discussions on healthy friendships and conflict resolution, complemented by assemblies and house activities.
The school is described as non-selective and inclusive, but there is no publicly disclosed list of the kinds of SEN the school can support or evidence of a specialist SEN department; the Visit Us page states SES is inclusive for students with learning difficulties when the school has the necessary support, and Admissions materials describe a non-selective intake.
The school does not publicly disclose information about English as an Additional Language (EAL) provision on its pages.
