Inclusion

We are an inclusive learning community.

Inclusion is at the heart of who we are, as a school and as an international community. From Admissions to graduation and beyond, our commitment to inclusion is more than meeting the learning needs of every student - it’s about embracing diversity. It’s about belonging.

Inclusion in our school celebrates the talents and diversity of students and acknowledges every child should be empowered and successful in their learning. We believe that opportunities should exist for all our learners to grow and achieve. All students have the right to realise their full potential. This belief embodies our school’s Mission and helps drive our ongoing Strategy. NIS is proud to be an inclusive learning community and is committed to honoring inclusion through our approach to teaching and education every day.

Our Journey of Inclusion

Since crafting our Mission as an inclusive learning community, NIS has been on a journey. We accept students with mild to moderate support needs with our Admissions team always viewing applicants from the perspective of whether they can thrive at NIS. Our commitment to student learning needs is a crucial element for every one of our students to feel welcomed, valued, and accepted. We are proud to have neurodiverse graduates amongst our alumni.

Inclusion is at the Heart of Who We Are.

Inclusion is a fundamental part of our school and its development.
