Parent Experience

Community, involvement and what it's like to be a parent at this school

History

The GUILD International College was established in 2021 by Jayne Nadarajoo and Ganesh Kanapathy to support and empower neurodivergent students with skills required to transition to further education, work, structured workplace, independent living and living with support.

Initially starting with a small cohort of learners from our sister school, Melbourne International School, The GUILD has now grown into a beautiful inclusive community that offers a good blend of academic, vocational and life skills programmes.

The GUILD is dedicated to its founding vision, to provide a safe, inclusive environment where every learner is empowered, respected and celebrated.

Community

At The GUILD International College, community is the heart of everything we do. We are a diverse, inclusive and supportive network of students, families, educators, therapists and industry partners who believe in the potential of every learner.

Our students come from a wide range of neurodiverse background including Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, Down Syndrome, Global Developmental Delay, Cerebral Palsy, Intellectual Disability, Williams Syndrome and other genetic conditions & learning differences.

The school hosts parent workshops, family social days, annual concerts, speech days and cultural celebrations to bring families, staff, and students together. These events help build connections and a sense of belonging for everyone involved.
