Shanghai French School is committed to allowing each child, regardless of their cultural environment and special needs, an access to a path of academic success.
WELL-BEING ACTIONS
INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT
SPECIAL NEEDS
We implement a wide range of initiatives to ensure a safe, caring, and positive school environment:
Listening and Support Channels
Anonymous suggestion box where students can share concerns freely
Trained mediators to help resolve conflicts peacefully
Peer Involvement
Student ambassadors promoting respect, kindness, and anti-bullying awareness
Year-round awareness campaigns on respect and inclusion
Emotional and Mental Health
Emotion management workshops led by professionals
Prevention and guidance sessions focused on empathy and self-awareness
Multidisciplinary Support Network
Psychologists, guidance counselors, school doctors, and specialized teachers
Coordinated support to address academic, emotional, and social challenges
Personalized follow-up to help every student thrive
Together, these initiatives create a calm, respectful environment where each student feels heard, supported, and empowered to flourish.
Personalized support is built into the students’ schedule, averaging 2 hours per week (72 hours per year). It goes beyond regular class time to help students:
Overcome learning challenges
Deepen knowledge or explore subjects differently
Get guidance on career paths and study choices
This program strengthens core skills and effective learning methods.
To help students achieve their full potential, we put in place action plans to help special needs students. Four main types exist:
PPRE: Personalized Program for Education Success. In a nutshell, it is an action plan on a limited period 5 to 7 weeks that targets a specific area or skill (writing, oral skills, behavior, focus).
PAP: Personalized Support Program. Mostly for students suffering from dyslexia, dyspraxia. Special arrangements can be made such as alleviating the homework, allowing extra time for tasks, increasing the font size and so on…
PAI: Individualized Integration Program. For students suffering from a chronical disease or allergy.
PPS: School Personalized Program. For students suffering from a handicap.

How it works?

Contact the pedagogical team or the direction and report the difficulties of your child. They will discuss together the need for action. The teaching team can request a meeting with the parents as well as additional reviews before setting up a PAP or PPS or not.
