Nurturing
Pupils’ Enthusiasm and Interests
We believe passionately in educational breadth,
therefore we aim to
provide an environment in which pupils can develop
intellectually, socially and spiritually, helping
them move from childhood to adulthood in such
a way that they will be able to take their places
in society as successful, responsible, hard working,
compassionate and sensitive people. A proper preparation
for adult life means nurturing the body as well
as the mind. Consequently, we offer a wide range
of extra curricular opportunities and encourage
all pupils to pursue interests beyond their studies.
Grange School pupils travel widely for competitions
and participation in activities with other international
schools locally and overseas as a regular part
of school life.
Discipline
and Rules
Our aim is to help every pupil learn to take responsibility
for his or her actions and to recognize the importance
of rules designed to protect both the individual
and the community. Our rules are founded on the
principles of consideration for the health, safety
and emotional and physical well-being of everyone.
Any pupil who undermines these principles or who
brings the school into disrepute can expect serious
consequences.
Pastoral
Care and Counseling
Each pupil is well known to the form tutor who
has the overall responsibility for his or her
well-being. In addition every pupil in the secondary
school is assigned to a personal mentor who gives
individual support and monitoring, both pastoral
and academic.
Grange School has plans to develop a full-fledged
counseling and special needs department. At the
moment, due to the absence of the required facilities
and personnel, the school operates an admission
policy that excludes moderate to severe cases.
The counseling department runs an effective academic
support programme where an individual education
programme – IEP is backed up with counseling
for each underachieving pupil.
Our counseling department organizes counseling
sessions to provide needed support to our IGCSE
classes as they choose their subjects for future
careers or select colleges and universities for
further education. Consultants are brought into
the school to work with the pupils in addition
to organized visits to places where needed information
are to be found. The career counseling sessions
also involve parents to ensure a collective decision.
Health
Care
Grange School maintains a well-equipped infirmary
located in the main building. A fully trained
nurse is always on duty whenever school is in
session. Specialist doctors and other medical
practitioners are brought into school to examine
pupils as and when required on a regular basis. |
