The International School of Belgrade has Learning Support Specialists on staff at the lower and upper campuses. The role of these positions are to assist K - 12 teachers who have students with minor special learning needs, including both students struggling with the regular curriculum and identified gifted students. ISB’s Child/Student Study Teams meet regularly to address student referrals and develop accommodation and intervention strategies.
At this time there is a full-time Learning Support Specialist at the Lower School and a part-time Specialist at the Middle School and High School. Specialized support in the areas of Speech Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy and academic tutoring may be found in the Belgrade area but must be paid for privately.
While ISB can offer assistance to students with some disabilities, it cannot provide services for students with moderate to severe disabilities. This is defined as a child who requires more than one period (45 minutes) of individual / small group assistance, more than four days a week, in order to be successful within the core academic program.
Please contact the school for further information.
