Inclusion & learning support

At École Mosaic, we celebrate the unique potential of every student by providing personalised, flexible support tailored to each child’s needs and learning pace. Our teachers use differentiated instruction in the classroom every day, adapting their teaching to help every student progress at their own level. For students joining us with limited or no prior knowledge of English or French, our specialised Passerelle Programme offers targeted language support to build confidence and fluency. When a student requires more intensive support, our special education team works closely with classroom teachers and parents to develop an Individualised Education Plan (IEP). Where necessary, a dedicated shadow teacher provides additional support for a set number of hours each week, with the aim of progressively building the student’s independence and helping them thrive in the long term.

Learning support

Learning support

In class, children benefit from tailored strategies for learning that match their own unique needs. When needed, they join small-group or individual sessions with learning support specialists, focusing on specific goals so progress feels visible and achievable.

 

Digital tools add extra flexibility, giving learners more opportunities to practice and show their understanding. At every step, they feel supported, build confidence and see themselves moving forward.

Expert team

Expert team

A full-time Counselor and Pastoral Care Coordinator ensures that any learning or emotional difficulty is noticed early and followed up carefully. When a concern arises, the Pedagogical Team discusses it with parents and carries out a class visit to understand the child’s needs. Together with teachers, the team explores tailored solutions, which may include a personalised education plan with regular reviews.

 

Collaboration with families, therapists, specialist staff and a referring doctor creates a strong circle of care around each student, helping every child feel understood, supported and able to make progress.

Caring for early teens

Caring for early teens

During the sensitive years of pre-adolescence, students at our SEN School in Geneva benefit from a structured network of care to support them through emotional, social and identity changes. Each learner is accompanied by a key adult—the homeroom teacher—who offers personalised guidance, maintains close contact with families and ensures continuity in the learning journey.

 

A health and wellbeing coordinator provides a confidential, caring space to talk, helping students manage emotions, relationships and personal challenges, while a dedicated adult supports them through key transitions such as changing grades or joining the school.

Stories from our community

At École Mosaic, we work with our students on respect, tolerance and empathy. Learning to live with oneself and with others is a strength that our students develop on a daily basis. Each individual is different and must learn to accept differences in others in order to flourish and develop.

Y6 teacher

The kids have a great time in class and all want to go to school. My daughter spoke neither French or English when she started and was very anxious. Her teachers have eased her integration and little by little she started to speak both languages
