Admission of English as an additional language (EAL) student

English is the academic language of the school. To ensure all students benefit from the programme, the school makes provisions for students whose first language is not English. Gateway International School – IB welcomes students with no prior knowledge of English in the Early Years Programme, the Primary Years Programme and the lower years of the Middle Years Programme. English is taught at the language acquisition level within the timetable for those with EAL needs.

Admission of students with learning support needs

Gateway has an inclusive environment where teachers work with each student’s unique strengths and weaknesses, including those students with special learning needs. Students with mild learning needs may attend Gateway and receive support from the class teacher and special educator. However, Gateway is not in a position to provide programmes for students with intermediate to severe learning needs.

Gateway has special educators who can provide one-on-one support and collaborate with class teachers to facilitate learning in the classroom. The school will also collaborate with parents to understand the child’s needs and help him/her in class.

Gateway strongly encourages student participation across the curriculum. Students who have received counseling, support, therapy, or who have been diagnosed with special educational needs should include all relevant diagnostic reports and evaluation documentation for confidential review.

Discontinuation of enrollment

A positive, collaborative working relationship between the school and a student’s parents/guardians is essential to the fulfilment of the school’s mission. Accordingly, the school does not tolerate behaviour that is detrimental to the safety, integrity, or dignity of any individual or group. Therefore, the school reserves the right to discontinue enrollment if it concludes that the actions of a student/parent/guardian make such a relationship impossible or otherwise seriously interfere with GIS’s accomplishment of its educational purposes.
