Measures to cater for learner Diversity
We recognize that every student has unique learning styles and needs. To ensure all our students can thrive, we employ a range of inclusive strategies in the classroom. Recognizing that students have varying language proficiency levels, we utilize visual aids such as diagrams, graphic organizers, and instructional videos to supplement our lessons. Depending on the topic and individual needs, we may provide differentiated assessments to evaluate the progress of students with diverse learning styles and abilities. We aim to create an inclusive learning environment that empowers each student to succeed according to their strengths and needs.
