Wellbeing & Student Support
Caring for the Heart, Guiding the Journey
At Modern International School Rome, student wellbeing is not an addition to education—it is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that a child who feels safe, seen, and supported is one who can truly flourish—in the classroom, in their friendships, and in the current competitive world.
Our Student Support programme is rooted in the principles of compassion, trust, and community. We strive to cultivate an environment where every student feels valued and respected, and where their physical, emotional, and moral needs are attentively met.
A Safe and Nurturing Environment
We take great care to create a school atmosphere that is emotionally secure, physically safe, and morally uplifting. From Early Years to Grade 10, students benefit from:
- Small class sizes that foster strong student-teacher bonds
- Daily routines that include check-ins and reflections
- Open communication between staff, students, and parents
- Anti-bullying initiatives rooted in mutual respect and globally recognized etiquette
- Positive behavior systems that reinforce kindness, empathy, and accountability
We promote a culture of rahmah (mercy)—where mistakes are met with guidance, and challenges are embraced as growth opportunities.
Mentorship & Student Support
Every student at MIS Rome is supported by a caring network of educators who serve as mentors, guides, and role models. Our care framework includes:
- Form teachers and class mentors who monitor student wellbeing and academic progress
- Weekly character education sessions based on values (e.g., patience, trust, integrity)
- Wellbeing workshops on topics such as stress management, online safety, and emotional regulation
- Dedicated staff for counseling and guidance, available to support students through personal or academic difficulties
- Referral systems for additional support, always handled with sensitivity and confidentiality
Partnership with Parents
We believe that wellbeing is a shared responsibility between school and home. Our student support team works closely with families through:
- Regular communication and feedback meetings
- Parent education sessions on adolescent development, good parenting, and emotional literacy
- Collaborative problem-solving when a child is struggling
- School Princpal available to advise parents and students with sensitivity and care
Together, we form a triangle of support—student, school, and family—ensuring no child is ever alone on their journey.
Here, every student matters. Every voice is heard. And every heart is cared for.
