Individual support
We use continuous evaluation - students receive a progress report each semester. And we make sure that parents are fully involved in learning outside the classroom and at our parent-teacher meetings, which we hold each semester. We support learning outside the classroom with our well-stocked library, self-study resources and online portal. Learn more about learning support.
