Ensuring all students get the support they need to thrive
The word ‘inclusion’ can mean different things to different people, therefore it is important that at the beginning that we clearly explain what ‘inclusion’ means at ISH.
ISH embraces the International Baccalaureate (IB) definition that ‘Inclusion is an ongoing process that aims to increase access and engagement for all students by

By assessing carefully the needs of our students, we are able to take positive action to remove barriers to their progress, then revisit and refine those decisions to continue building a clearer picture of their needs and how they can achieve personal excellence.
