Empowering and Inspiring Neurodiverse Minds
Welcome to the Inclusive Education Services at the School of the Nations!
Our Inclusive Education Services encompass two specialized programs: the IMPACT Centre and Learning Support, each tailored to address the diverse needs of our students.
The IMPACT Centre
The IMPACT Centre provides a personalized educational experience for students with learning challenges, integrating a modified Cambridge International Education curriculum with the Award Scheme Development Accreditation Network (ASDAN) program to address diverse needs. Our dedicated team employs individualized strategies to support students with varied learning profiles, equipping them with the tools to achieve academic success while fostering emotional regulation, social skills, and effective behavior management.
Learning Support
Our Learning Support program adapts the Cambridge International Education curriculum to meet the unique needs of students. Through close collaboration with students, teachers, and families, we develop personalized learning plans that build on students' strengths while identifying and targeting their learning challenges, fostering an inclusive environment where every student can thrive.
IMPACT Centre: Cambridge International Education and ASDAN Curricula
The IMPACT Centre offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach that supports students’ academic and personal growth within the frameworks of the Cambridge International Education curriculum and the ASDAN curriculum. These specialized programs are tailored to meet the unique needs of each student, fostering development across key areas including communication, behavior, physical well-being, and social-emotional growth.
Cambridge International Education Curriculum
The Cambridge curriculum is designed to provide a broad and balanced education that meets the academic needs of students while allowing for differentiation. In the IMPACT Centre, we adapt the curriculum to ensure students receive personalized instruction, enabling them to develop key skills in subjects such as English, Math, Science, and Humanities. Through individualized learning plans, we modify the pace, content, and approach to ensure every student can engage meaningfully with the curriculum and achieve their academic potential.
ASDAN Curriculum
The ASDAN curriculum focuses on cultivating practical life skills, specifically designed to support students with special educational needs. It is designed to build independence, self-confidence, and employability skills through a combination of coursework and project-based learning. At the IMPACT Centre, we implement ASDAN programs to help students strengthen skills in areas like personal development, communication, and vocational preparation. These programs are tailored to meet students' individual needs, providing hands-on learning experiences that support their transition to life beyond school.
Both the Cambridge and ASDAN curricula work in tandem to provide students with a balanced educational experience that emphasizes academic achievement, social-emotional well-being, and the development of essential life skills. Our approach ensures that every student has access to the tools and resources they need to thrive academically and personally.
Learning Support: Tailored Cambridge Curriculum Modifications
Our Learning Support program is designed to provide students with access to the mainstream Cambridge International Education curriculum while customizing it to meet their individual learning needs. For some students, this may involve adjustments such as replacing specific subjects—like Kiswahili—with additional personalized, one-on-one lessons focused on areas requiring targeted improvement, such as mathematics.
Curriculum modifications are thoughtfully crafted to align with each student’s unique learning requirements. These adjustments are implemented both within the mainstream classroom and in dedicated learning support sessions to ensure an inclusive and supportive educational experience.
Our remedial program is specifically aimed at closing the gap between a student’s current knowledge and the proficiency level expected for their academic stage, equipping them with the skills they need to succeed.
