Learning Support at Strothoff International School

The Learning Support Department at Strothoff International School assists students in a variety of ways:
we are able to help students who are experiencing learning difficulties in literacy and numeracy with as in-class support, or through tuition in small withdrawal groups or on a 1:1 basis.

We have extensive resources for assisting students with dyslexia, including the Nessy Learning Programme and Wordshark.
We also have a number of excellent assessment/screening instruments to ascertain the nature of the students' learning difficulties, including the Dyscalculia Screener, the Dyslexia Screener, the Neale Analysis of Reading and the Hamburger Schreibprobe.

Strothoff International School also offers students an expertly tailored Individual Education Plan (IEP) in order to help students achieve their academic goals.

The Learning Support Department also helps non-native speakers improve their proficiency in English (EAL) and is able to offer both in-class support and tuition in small withdrawal groups.

This is a significant part of Learning Support’s role, as it is extremely important that all students’ English ability is of a sufficient standard to cope with the demands of the school’s curriculum.

Finally, Learning Support is able to also help students considered to be ‘gifted and talented’. We have a school policy document written especially for these students and are able to motivate the students and stimulate them with work that is sufficiently interesting and challenging.
