Individualized Support
The program is designed to offer students individualized instruction in learning strategies. Organization and time management skills are the foundation of this program. Additionally, students receive both individual and small group support for the academic work of their core curriculum classes.
Faculty-Supported Area of Study
ISP study hall is open Sunday-Thursday evenings. Students attend ISP study hall to complete their work in an ISP-staffed and structured environment.
Assistive Technology
Students are introduced to various assistive technologies, like Learning Ally and Google Read and Write, to facilitate academic learning. ISP students receive instruction in the use of this technology and the application of the technology to their academic learning.
“In the Instructional Support Program, I not only found the motivation to excel academically but also learned invaluable life skills – consistency, self-advocacy, and effective communication. The guidance I received was nothing short of transformative. My teachers, like Mary, went above and beyond, starting our days together with invigorating jogs that set the tone for positive and productive learning.”

“The Neuroscience of learning is the foundation of my praxis. Here at Besant Hill School, the application of Mind, Brain, and Education science pedagogy is valued, so that students can internalize the habits of Mind to become self-motivated, goal oriented, and lifelong learners.”
