The Post: Learning Support Teacher The Support for Learning department. The aim of the Support for Learning department is to assist in developing the academic, behavioural, and social development of students identified as in need of extra support as outlined in the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Code of Practice (SEND CoP) and the KHDA. Learning Support at Jumeirah College values the contribution from each and every student and welcomes diversity of culture, religion and intellectual style. Each student is unique and has individual needs. They learn at different rates and reach milestones at different times, and this process continues throughout lifelong learning. In every class at school there will be students who may, at some time during their school years, have specific educational needs identified. These learning difficulties could be short or long term. Jumeirah College works in partnership with parents to monitor their child\xe2\x80\x99s development and, where there are concerns, take steps to help him/her to learn more effectively - to maximise inclusion and opportunities for all students.
