ISB is an inclusive school designed to meet the needs of all learners. Students with educational needs will be supported to the fullest extent possible so that all can experience consistent success.

When a student has special educational needs, ISB’s well-being coordinators will provide expertise to teaching teams as needed. If in-school support is not sufficient, ISB is able to call on external agencies, including the municipal Pedagogical Psychological Support (PPS), for additional help.

For some year levels there will be an assessment and an interview before a new student is enrolled.

The assessment provides an indication of the student’s academic level and any possible learning support that may be required.

We have a waiting list for most grade levels and will be expanding over the next couple of years.

Registration preferably before 1 September, but students are enrolled throughout the year.
