At Wellspring Saigon the SEL programme is delivered through a dedicated curriculum via the Learning Support Centre (LSC) which draws on the CASEL five-core competencies to help students develop self-awareness, self-regulation, social awareness, positive communication and responsible decision-making. The school website states that the LSC curriculum covers self-management, social awareness, positive communication, resilience and mindfulness in a whole-school approach.
Counsellors provide structured support across year groups, adopting evidence-based frameworks to integrate emotional and social skill development alongside academic learning.
This means SEL lessons are explicitly planned, and teachers and facilitators are guided with a framework to create classroom environments that promote reflection and growth.
Wellspring Saigon provides a Learning Support Centre (LSC) which offers structured learning support lessons and frameworks aimed at assisting students who face learning difficulties in specific subject areas. The LSC is not described as a specialist SEN institution, but rather as an in-school support service. The school materials list a “Special Request Form” for special services (including for allergies or meal adaptations) but do not detail precisely which categories of SEN are supported (for example, autism spectrum or moderate learning difficulties).
Thus, while there is a defined internal support structure via the LSC and differentiated learning plans, the school does not publicly disclose full details of all types of SEN support provision.
The school’s publicly available information does not specifically outline an EAL programme under that name or full details of tailored provision for English learners. Therefore, we state that the school does not publicly disclose comprehensive EAL support, programmes or staffing.
Wellspring Saigon’s website indicates that there is a “Mental Counselling Program” alongside the SEL programme, with counselling specialists trained in child psychology offering confidential advice and support to students. This shows the school provides support structures for mental health, where students can access confidential counselling and wellbeing services. It emphasises helping students cope with challenges, supporting their mental development and offering supervision through trained staff.
The school frames this as integral to its student potential development offerings.
The school does not publicly disclose comprehensive safeguarding and child protection policy details.
