The school provides counseling and learning support through its KOA center. The institution is committed to inclusion, ensuring that resources and support mechanisms are available to students who require them to meet their individual needs. Teachers are trained to design inclusive environments that facilitate differentiation for all learners.

The school manages an admissions process for prospective families, which includes information sessions and individual appointments. Interested parties can contact the admissions office directly via email or phone to begin the application experience. Detailed information regarding the preschool section, including class sizes and age requirements, is available upon request.
