This school states meaningful learning-support provision — still confirm it fits your child's specific need.

Why this matters

Special-needs provision at international schools varies widely and is rarely guaranteed by the school itself — and local legal duties differ by country. Confirm what this school provides, in writing, before you commit.

Questions to ask the school

  1. Can you support a child with my child's specific need (e.g. dyslexia, ADHD, autism), and have you done so this year? Ask for concrete examples.
  2. Is there an additional fee for learning support or EAL — and how much per year?
  3. Is learning support guaranteed for the full enrolment, or can it be withdrawn later?
