Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)
LFES promotes and supports the wellbeing of every individual through a whole-school ethos where children and staff feel secure and valued. Wellbeing is the responsibility of the entire school community, with a focus on physical, mental, emotional and social health. The Wellbeing policy aims to develop protective factors that build resilience, self-esteem, and positive relationships, and to prepare students for adult life. Wellbeing is integrated into the curriculum and supported by services such as the listening lounge where students can speak with the pastoral leader and receive life coaching when needed. The wellbeing team includes counsellors and wellbeing staff who provide support for emotional or mental health needs, and staff receive training to promote wellbeing. Parental involvement is encouraged, and students participate in wellbeing decisions, with systematic monitoring and review of wellbeing support by the leadership team.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)
LFES uses the Inclusion Policy (Students of Determination), formerly the SEN policy, to promote inclusive education for all students. The policy defines Students of Determination, Students with Additional Needs, and Students of Wellbeing Concern, and aligns with UAE Federal Law No. 29 (2006) and Dubai Law No. 2 (2014) as well as DSIB definitions. The aim is for all Students of Determination to develop a strong sense of belonging, emotional resilience, and to be well prepared for the next stage of education, within a safe and stimulating environment and a broad, balanced curriculum. Three waves of intervention guide support: Wave 1 inclusive teaching, Wave 2 targeted additional interventions, and Wave 3 more intensive specialist provision. The SENDCO coordinates identification, planning (IEP/ALP/IAP), monitoring, and collaboration with parents to remove learning barriers and enable full participation in school life. Regular meetings with parents and ongoing staff training support inclusive practice and progress reporting.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)
The medium of instruction at LFES is English, with reading given emphasis across the curriculum. UAE requirements are incorporated, including compulsory Arabic Studies (first language for native Arabs) and Arabic as a second language for non-Arabs, along with Islamic Studies for Muslim students and UAE Social Studies. The curriculum follows CBSE guidelines and aims to meet KHDA and MOE standards, balancing international practice with local regulatory requirements. The program adopts an interdisciplinary approach and fosters holistic development to ensure accessibility and inclusivity within an English-language framework.

Mental Wellbeing
LFES recognizes mental health as a core aspect of wellbeing and provides structured support to promote emotional health. The Wellbeing policy outlines a pathway for identifying and addressing emotional or mental health needs, including access to pastoral staff and counsellors. The Pastoral team and wellbeing staff offer targeted support, life coaching, and, when needed, referrals to external services. Staff receive ongoing professional development on mental health and wellbeing, and wellbeing planning is informed by risk assessment and monitoring processes. The school engages parents and students in planning and reviewing mental health support and maintains confidential records as part of safeguarding.

Safeguarding
The school upholds a Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy that affirms its duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of all students. It operates in line with UAE Federal Law Wadeema's Law, KHDA safeguarding guidelines, and MoE regulations. Designated safeguarding leaders coordinate safeguarding across the school, maintaining confidential records and working with external authorities as needed. The policy sets clear roles and responsibilities for the Principal, the Designated Safeguarding Lead, the Health & Safety Officer, and the SENDCO, and specifies procedures for reporting concerns, investigation, and escalation. It also details recognised forms of abuse (physical, emotional, sexual, neglect, and peer-on-peer) and the steps for safe reporting, documentation and timely action. Staff training is conducted annually, and safeguarding records are securely stored to protect student privacy.
