Inclusion at Regent International School

Making Learning Accessible for All

Regent is an inclusive, non-judgemental school, which exercises a positive admissions policy and considers every application on an individual basis.

An equal opportunity to flourish

“Inclusive education is the process through which schools develop systems, classrooms, programs and activities so that all students are able to learn, develop and participate together. In an inclusive school, the curriculum, physical surroundings and school community should reflect the views and characteristics of its students. An inclusive school honours diversity and respects all individuals. Inclusion does not mean treating people the same without regard for individual differences” (KHDA inspection report, 2019-20 ).

We encourage all families to have open and honest conversations with us regarding their children. We will work with you to achieve and deliver the best for your child. Our Achievement Centre (formerly known as the Individual Needs Department) is a caring and nurturing department that enables the best and most supportive environment for education. Our role is to determine how we can best meet the needs of a wide variety of learners so that all students can access an appropriate, meaningful, and suitably-challenging education.

How We Assess

We assess each child’s individual learning, language, and social-emotional needs upon entry to the school to determine the ways in which we can best support their progress, learning and personal development.

How We Support

Our team of specialists works in partnership with the class teachers, parents and external specialists to develop Individual Achievement Plans for students with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities.

How We Thrive

Targeted intervention, both within and outside of the classroom, is provided by our experienced team of Individual Needs Support Assistants and/or School Counsellor to ensure the best possible learning to take place.

Possibilities are infinite at Regent. There are no limits to letting my child’s imagination grow. He has become ambitious in his thinking and outlook, which is great. Children are encouraged to take chances, try anything and not be afraid.
