Lastly, the opportunities presented as special interest groups, socials, holiday informational gatherings and other ideas used to allow for a proper marriage between intercultural sensitivity, and organisational culture. I hope this helped.

For me, it starts with simply noticing and acknowledging the student. I’ll often check in privately to see how they’re feeling and what they might need. From there, I try to find ways to connect them with peers through shared interests—clubs, projects, or activities where they can shine. I’ve also seen the power of inviting their voice into classroom discussions, making space for them to share their perspectives. It’s all about creating small moments of belonging that add up, showing the student they’re valued and seen as a unique part of the school community.
