UNIS Hanoi integrates social and emotional learning through its Student Support Services, which include counsellors, an educational psychologist, and a Director of Student Success & Wellbeing. The school follows a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) framework that aligns academic and emotional interventions. Counsellors work with students, teachers, and families to promote emotional awareness, positive relationships, and self-regulation skills. Support is tailored according to student needs and reviewed regularly through team meetings and progress monitoring.
The school provides structured support for students with mild to moderate learning differences. Services include in-class support, small group instruction, and consultation with specialists to ensure access to the mainstream curriculum. Support is available from Early Years through Grade 12. Each case is reviewed individually to determine whether the school can meet the student’s needs. UNIS Hanoi is not a specialist SEN institution but offers inclusive education within its capacity.
UNIS Hanoi offers an EAL programme to help non-native English speakers develop academic and social proficiency in English. Specialist EAL teachers collaborate with classroom teachers to deliver targeted support through in-class instruction and pull-out sessions. Admission policies include quotas for EAL students to ensure balanced classroom language levels. Support continues until students demonstrate independence in English within the school’s academic framework.
The school’s wellbeing provision is coordinated by the Student Support Services team and overseen by the Director of Student Success & Wellbeing. Counsellors and health professionals work with students to provide emotional guidance, early intervention, and referrals when necessary. The school also offers regular wellbeing initiatives and student-led activities that encourage positive community relationships and personal growth. Support is accessible across all age groups.
UNIS Hanoi has a Child Safeguarding Policy that outlines clear procedures for protecting students. All staff are trained in safeguarding practices and are required to follow the school’s code of conduct. The policy establishes reporting channels and defines responsibilities for responding to any concerns about student welfare. Safeguarding oversight falls under the Director of Student Success & Wellbeing and the school’s leadership team.
