Student welfare is the most important concept in a Finnish curriculum to upkeep the mental wellbeing and to encourage inclusion. Student welfare is the responsibility of all school stakeholders.
Physical Wellbeing
Nutritious food plays a pivotal in the physical wellbeing of students. A balanced diet that caters to the required nutritional needs of each student. The School canteen offers pure vegetarian well balanced menu with unlimited servings. The purpose of having food in the canteen gives an opportunity to the students to understand the science of eating together, cooperation and self reliance.
Apart from all of this, there is an engagement of students “FIS on the Move” that brings out the agility, focus, collaboration. FIS on the move is a 20 minutes active break between the lessons, where in the students engage in various physical, cognitive activities outside the classroom. It is primarily targeting to enhance physical activities during breaks and subject lesson, being a direct link to learning objectives of the particular lesson. Every teacher is a PE teacher and all teachers are responsible for the wellbeing of the students.

The homeroom teachers are their foster parents who also take care of the behavioural needs of the students and help them in their self actualisation process.
