Our day school is committed to Differentiated Instruction to meet the diverse needs of every student. Our approach includes:

Ongoing Evaluations: Regularly evaluating and assessing students to inform instructional decisions and make necessary adjustments. We always check for understanding to ensure continuous progress.
Different Styles: Catering to various learning styles by adapting teaching methods and materials to match the unique preferences of each student.
Student Flexibility: Empowering students to have a voice in their education by offering choices and options. We provide flexibility based on their readiness, interests, and learning profiles, allowing for targeted scaffolding.

By implementing Differentiated Instruction, we create a dynamic and inclusive learning environment where every student can succeed according to their individual strengths and needs.

At our special day school, we prioritize equity to ensure every student receives the support they need to succeed. Our approach includes:

Inclusive: Ensuring no student is left out and all receive necessary accommodations.
Culturally Sensitive: Respecting all backgrounds, traditions, and opinions, free from bias and barriers.
Lowering Affective Filters: Creating a comfortable classroom environment where every student feels safe to learn.
Communication: Promoting collaboration, communication, and care among students and teachers.
Challenging: Setting high expectations so students leave the classroom having learned or gained something meaningful.
Goal-setting: Establishing clear goals and working together to achieve them, ensuring everyone reaches their full potential.

By fostering an equitable classroom environment, we help each student thrive academically and personally, preparing them for a successful future.

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is a crucial part of our curriculum, designed to develop five key competencies in students:

Self-Awareness: Understanding one's own emotions, strengths, and values.
Social Awareness: Recognizing and respecting others' perspectives and cultural differences.
Decision-Making: Making responsible and ethical choices.
Self-Management: Regulating emotions and behaviors to achieve goals.
Relationship Skills: Building and maintaining healthy relationships through effective communication and cooperation.

Our SEL program ensures that each competency is given equal importance, represented by the balanced pie chart, promoting holistic development in our students. By integrating SEL, we prepare students not only for academic success but also for positive social interactions and emotional well-being.
