What support does my child get if she has a learning difficulty?
The School assists students with learning difficulties to develop competency in literacy, numeracy and learning skills. The needs of students with learning difficulties are identified in primary school and the ESU (Educational Support Unit) will guide such students accordingly.
Physical, Psychological and Social safety is embedded into our school life. Our faculty is committed to listen to students. We do have a full time counsellor for all students, on matters of education or Psychological needs of a child inside the school. In addition we also have a complaint/inquiry process in place for any issue. Such process starts with the parent first meeting with the faculty member or Teacher-in-Charge. All unresolved issues could be discussed with the Principal via Sectional Heads. We are committed to make the best environment to our students.
