Our policy is to give students with learning disabilities differentiated support and attention and to take into consideration their difficulties during assessment.<\/p>\n

The School has a Special Needs Department which follows an interdisciplinary and preventive approach to meet the challenges that arise from differing learning abilities. During support classes, each student’s needs are individually catered for. The aim of this programme and of the cognitive strategies it provides is to develop and boost these students’ strengths and capacities so that they may seek, learn, and use these strategies to overcome their difficulties and work with the curriculum, both in Spanish and in English.<\/p>\n

The following year, students sit for Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education. This is one of the most prestigious secondary education programmes worldwide for 14 to 16-year-old students.<\/p>\n

Cambridge IGCSE is an international programme which develops students’ capacities for creative thinking, research and problem solving, and it is an excellent preparation for the next step in their education. www.cie.org.uk[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=\u00bbService as Action\u00bb custom_font_container=\u00bbtag:h2|font_size:21|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff\u00bb custom_use_theme_fonts=\u00bbyes\u00bb use_custom_heading=\u00bbtrue\u00bb css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1504631820318{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb]Following the IBO Middle Years Programme regulations, students are asked the question: \u00abWhat can I do for my community?\u00bb.

This motivates our students’ affective, creative, ethical and cognitive development.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=\u00bbPhysical Education and Sports\u00bb custom_font_container=\u00bbtag:h2|font_size:21|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff\u00bb custom_use_theme_fonts=\u00bbyes\u00bb use_custom_heading=\u00bbtrue\u00bb css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1504553013940{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb]The most practised sports are rugby and football for boys, hockey and handball for girls and athletics for both.<\/p>\n

The School participates in the Interschool Sports League, in A.D.I.C. (Sports Association for Schools Integration), in the Uruguayan Rugby Union and in the Uruguayan Hockey Federation.<\/p>\n

Activities are mostly carried out in the School, since it has a gym, two artificial grass pitches and a natural grass field.<\/p>\n

When students finish School they can become part of Old Woodlands, an Alumni club founded in 2009.<\/p>\n

Sports Tours are essential for our students’ development as athletes. Not only are they motivated to improve their performance, but they are culturally enriched by new experiences.<\/p>\n

School camps are also part of our curriculum. In Senior 1, a camp is held at the beginning of the year. It intends to promote integration and a sense of belonging.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=\u00bbUniform\u00bb custom_font_container=\u00bbtag:h2|font_size:21|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff\u00bb custom_use_theme_fonts=\u00bbyes\u00bb use_custom_heading=\u00bbtrue\u00bb css=\u00bb.vc_custom_1504633278957{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\u00bb]GIRLS<\/p>\n
