Student Well-Being

At DAIS, we are committed to the well-being of every child, within the school and beyond. The focus is on
meeting each child's unique learning needs, by providing an environment that is inclusive, safe, supportive
and respectful. Individualised approaches and differentiated instruction are designed to cater to their
diverse abilities and skillsets, and help them cope with academic and emotional challenges as well as
behavioural problems.

Our Student Care team, comprising guidance counsellors and special education needs teachers, works
with class teachers and parents to provide appropriate support. This enables students to cope with the
demands of student life, in constructive and creative ways. Transition meetings ensure that students move
within the school across sections and curriculums with ease, and educators are aware and appreciative of
the learning needs of their students. Our counsellors conduct in-house psycho-educational evaluations to
identify special education needs. Wherever required, the Student Care team consults with external
professionals or institutions for evaluating and addressing children's special learning needs.

We help students develop essential life skills so they are better prepared for the opportunities,
responsibilities and experiences in life. All students engage in a well-planned life skills programme, PSHE
(Personal, Social and Health Education), which is delivered by Class Teachers (K-10) and IB Diploma Tutors,
in collaboration with school counsellors.

Students are also guided to select higher education pathways through a comprehensive career counselling
programme from Class IX onwards, thereby informing them early on about multiple learning and career
options. Our college counsellors support students as they select their IB Diploma subjects and explore
university admission options. Each year, about 200 representatives from leading universities from Australia,
Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, UK, US and many European countries, as well as India, visit our school and
provide information on various educational programmes and career opportunities.
