At UWCCR students with special educationals needs with guidance and support during their time at school, from follow-ups on how to organize their time, study timetables to IEP's to teachers to make them aware of their students' needs. Also, the SEN Coordinator communicates with parents when further evaluations need to be made during the break or to organize them to be done in Costa Rica, with external professionals (at the parents' expenses). The SEN Coordinator also assists students that come from disadvantage academic backgrounds, especially with organizations that the school works with, to have support during their transition to the new system.
