Established in 2014, Melbourne Specialist International School (MSIS) was created to serve one main purpose – to give all children access to high-quality education, designed to meet their requirements. We want every child to achieve, aspire and succeed.
Our unique, three-pronged approach brings together the expertise of teachers, specialists, and therapists to work on the specific needs of each student, weaving creative therapies into all classroom activities.
We use an arts-based programme that draws on dance, drama, music and visual arts to teach functional English, Mathematics, and daily living skills, to deliver an inclusive curriculum where every child feels supported and actively encouraged to reach their full potential.
Our vision is to be recognised as the most inspirational inclusive school.
Our Mission is to Providing a safe and stimulative multi-disciplinary learning environment in which happy, confident children are nurtured into independent young people who can contribute to society.
Our Values
Melbourne Specialist International School, Uses a Foundation to Year 10 Australian curriculum framework as a guide with a visual and performing arts programme, as well as therapy services, to help each child reach their full potential. Students see specialist teachers in art, dance, music, occupational therapy, physical education and speech and language therapy. These areas of learning are also used in meaningful and directed ways by the classroom teacher to achieve literacy, numeracy, and living skills goals.
The school also offers functional academics in the areas of Maths, English and Pre-Vocational Training, and it incorporates an independent living skills programme that helps to encourage self-help and self-regulation. Each student has individual goals and learning plans set out for them to achieve.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
We recently enrolled our son, 9 year old on the autism spectrum at MIS. We relocated back to Singapore last year from the US and are pleasantly surprised at the inclusive and comprehensive curriculum at MIS on par with american standards. The entire team is so knowledgeable in understanding children with neurological differences and they customize their curriculum accordingly. Through their unique arts based approach they provide well rounded education by making learning fun. My son gets to enjoy his school life just like his peers who are neurotypical. Wholeheartedly recommend MIS if you are looking for inclusive school with high quality education.
