Seoul - School Report Question and Answers

Services for gifted students who need academic challenge and students with learning difficulties:

A - As I mentioned they have an extensive support office that offers OT, reading, math and other supports for kids who need extra help. They also have leveled classes to provide more of a challenge for those who are able to push ahead. - May 2016


I know they can accommodate all students but do not know anything about the specific programs. - Nov 2015


I know that they have an English Learner program for kids for whom English is a second language, especially if they are really struggling to keep up. Generally, the program is structured in such a way that individual children are able to learn at their own pace, and teachers are always encouraged to meet their students where they are, and gently challenge them to go further. Mild learning difficulties can be accommodated, but I have seen one case when one family was asked to provide a full-time teaching aid because their neurologically atypical child could not otherwise function in the typical classroom setting. - Oct 2015


Unsure, but if Korean is not a native language, it will probably be very challenging. - May 2015
