Osaka International Schools of Kwansei Gakuin

Osaka International School provides Social Emotional Learning Counseling as part of its Learning & Language Support (L&LS) program to support students' social and emotional development. The L&LS team includes Maricar Ronidel as the K-12 Social Emotional Learning Counselor, supported by Learning Support and Inclusion staff. The program emphasizes valuing student diversity and creating inclusive learning environments to meet varied learning needs. The Counselling Center operates year‑round to facilitate social and emotional well‑being and academic achievement, with students able to book appointments or drop in for conversations, and parents can contact the Counselling Centre for consultations. Together, these provisions support student well‑being, resilience, and success.

The school lists Learning Support, English as an Additional Language (EAL) and Social Emotional Counseling as SEN‑related services integrated within the Learning & Language Support program. The Learning & Language Support Team includes Melissa Lamug (MS/HS Learning Support & Inclusion), Jessica Richards (Learning Support & Inclusion) and Cary Mecklem (EAL), among others. The public pages describe Learning Support, EAL and SEL as the core services for students with learning needs, but do not itemize specific clinical SEN categories. The school does not describe itself as a dedicated specialist SEN institution; SEN provision is integrated within the L&LS framework. The emphasis is on inclusive learning environments and equitable access to education.

English as an Additional Language (EAL) is provided through the Learning & Language Support Team as part of the school's inclusive education framework. Cary Mecklem is listed as EAL (ES English as an Additional Language). The Learning & Language Support page places EAL among the services for students with learning needs, alongside Learning Support and Social Emotional Counseling. The EAL provision is integrated with other LS services to support multilingual learners.

Mental wellbeing support is delivered through the Counselling Center, which is dedicated to caring for students' physical and mental health year‑round. The center facilitates social and emotional well‑being and the achievement of academic potential for all Osaka International School students, with appointments available and counselling available as needed. Maricar Ronidel serves as the K‑12 Social Emotional Learning Counselor, strengthening the school's SEL provision. Parents can contact the Counselling Center for consultations, and students can seek confidential support as required.

Osaka International School and Senri International School share a Child Protection Policy and a Faculty Code of Conduct, which applicants can review prior to or during the enrollment process. The admissions page lists the Child Protection Policy and Code of Conduct as safeguarding materials accessible during the application process. This demonstrates a formal safeguarding framework across the two schools. The policy and conduct are intended to guide staff and protect students throughout their experience with SOIS and SIS.
