No.

At Liberté, we view each child as a unique individual with unique learning styles, strengths, and sometimes areas that can be considered challenges. We believe that children with mild learning or physical challenges can develop and learn effectively in an environment like ours designed for individual differences. However, the school does not cater for special needs education.

Liberté School's learning environment is, at its core, a child-led environment where learners are free to learn in their own way. Academics is implemented via individual learning plans focusing on cognitive science and the development of executive functioning skills. This allows children to progress at an advanced pace in the subject areas in which they excel while developing at a pace suited to them in subjects where their aptitude is in other areas. Such an environment is typically very well-suited to children with high potential.

Yea, the school has a relationship with an external educational psycologist.

Only for our primary school section.

Liberté considers that expecting a child to perform above their abilities is not in the child’s best interest. Prospective learners are expected to meet the specific demands of the curriculum, stage or grade to which admission is sought. Prospective learners must have attained the required level of performance for entry into the School. Preference will be given to children with the highest academic potential and acceptable disciplinary and general behaviour records. This will be assessed during the admissions using the School’s assessment guidelines per age category or via proof of previous education. No applicant shall be admitted without having undergone an assessment. Assessments do not apply to children younger than four years of age.

Liberté School provides a learning environment where children are allowed the freedom to learn in a manner most suited to them individually. Our educational approach is based on Cognitive Science principles: the science of learning and thinking with a strong focus on the development of executive functioning skills.

Children are intelligent and competent humans with an innate ability to participate actively in their learning. At Liberté, we believe that learning is amplified by a safe learning environment that promotes social interactions among children of different ages, cultures and backgrounds. With this in mind, the overriding curriculum outcome is to create a learning and personal development culture that prioritises the development of executive functioning skills. This learning environment ultimately leads to increased learning capacity and better decision-making. Our curriculum aims, therefore, encompass the following outcomes:

-Providing learners with the skills needed for planning, fluid intelligence (reasoning, problem-solving, creative, critical and adaptable thinking), self-monitoring, self-control, time management, organisation and the ability to collect, organise, analyse and critically evaluate information for sound decision making.
- Instilling a sense of responsibility towards oneself, society and the environment.
- Developing an understanding of the world as a set of related, interacting systems and contexts that do not exist in isolation.
- Develop an ethos of collaboration and understanding, enabling individuals to work effectively both individually and with others as members of a team;
- Develop the social and emotional skills and understanding needed to effectively communicate and collaborate with others from diverse backgrounds, languages and cultures.
- Making effective and responsibly use of available resources encompassing natural, financial, intellectual and technological resources to create a sustainable society.
