Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
The Centre for Inclusive Learning (CIL) offers a curriculum that supports students' social and emotional needs through daily routines combining traditional subjects with therapeutic provisions and targeted interventions.
The Centre for Inclusive Learning is a dedicated facility for students with special educational needs, and it is the first of its kind in Brunei. The programme supports a range of needs across four key areas: cognition and learning, communication and interaction, social, emotional and mental health, and sensory and physical development. Each student follows an individualised programme designed in partnership with families, blending academic subjects with therapies and life skills. CIL is staffed by qualified educators and therapists who deliver both structured learning and flexible support throughout the day.
CIL does not run a separate EAL programme, as the focus is on supporting diverse learning needs rather than language acquisition.
Student wellbeing is central to CIL’s approach, with daily structures designed to provide a calm, secure, and consistent learning environment. The programme includes built-in wellbeing and therapeutic sessions such as sensory breaks, quiet time, and activities that promote emotional regulation. Staff receive training to identify emotional distress and implement support strategies tailored to each student.
CIL adheres to ISB’s Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy, which outlines the school's duty of care to all students. All staff at CIL undergo safeguarding training and are subject to vetting procedures in line with ISB’s safer recruitment practices. The facility operates with the same safeguarding protocols as ISB’s main campuses, including designated safeguarding leads and regular policy reviews.
The Centre for Inclusive Learning (CIL) is a specialist educational setting operated by International School Brunei, located in Panaga, Kuala Belait. Opened in 2021, CIL provides personalised education for children with diverse learning needs, including cognitive, communication, social-emotional, and sensory or physical challenges. Designed for students who require a highly individualised approach outside a mainstream classroom, the centre offers a calm, structured environment with small group and one-to-one teaching. Students benefit from access to shared facilities and activities at the nearby ISB Seria Campus, supporting social inclusion.
There are several platforms that list schools. But only one has every school in Southeast Asia, fully impartial, and designed for parents: doris.
