Our school is committed to developing the potential of each individual learner. Throughout November, as we do every year, we will continue our collaboration with Luigi Sangalli, Pedagogista Speciale, from the University of Verona.
Luigi Sangalli will work together with our teachers and parents to offer each child a targeted and optimum learning experience. Part of this process involves a brief individual screening of all new students in EYU and Years 1 & 2 and the re-screening of other students from across the PYP section. These individual screenings will be conducted by Luigi Sangalli together with Rita Bernardo, our SEN Support Teacher. The screening identifies developmental needs that are then addressed through targeted interventions in the classroom and at home. This collaborative work, which is unique in Italy, provides proactive support and interventions designed to address emerging developmental needs that might prohibit progress in school. When there are items that emerge from this screening that require parent involvement, we will inform parents directly.
