The GUILD International College is preparing to move to a new home within the International French School (Singapore) campus in September 2026.
While our surroundings will change, the things that make The GUILD The GUILD will not. Our students will continue to learn with our teachers, through the personalised, neuro-affirming approach and support they know, now with the added opportunities that come from being part of a larger international school community
It gives our students the opportunity to learn and grow within a larger school community while remaining part of the supportive environment that is at the heart of who we are.
Our new home
The GUILD will be based within the IFS campus in Ang Mo Kio, with our own dedicated learning spaces for students and our team. Our students will also have scheduled access to outdoor areas and shared facilities such as the Gymnasium.
This gives our students more space to learn, move, create and connect, while The GUILD retains its own identity and approach.
Two school communities, shared values
The partnership brings together two schools with their own distinct identities and educational approaches, but with a shared belief in the value of diversity, inclusion and community.
The GUILD is Singapore’s first international college dedicated to students with diverse abilities aged 7 to 35, supporting students through personalised academic, social and vocational pathways. IFS, meanwhile, has a 60-year history in Singapore and is home to students representing more than 70 nationalities.
Over time, we hope to explore ways for our students to connect with the IFS community through sport, music and the visual and performing arts, giving students the chance to learn alongside one another and build new relationships.
Our students will continue to learn within the supportive environment and personalised approach they know, guided by our teachers and The CONNECT Method™. The move gives us the opportunity to offer this within a larger school environment, with more experiences available around them.
The GUILD is part of a continued education pathway alongside HEI Schools and Melbourne International School, supporting students from the early years through school and into further and vocational education. This gives families access to different learning environments and pathways as their child grows and their needs develop
Creating a community where difference belongs
For Jayne Nadarajoo, Founder & Head of The GUILD International College, the move represents an important step in our journey.
“At The GUILD, our core objective is to offer an inclusive, safe and empowering environment where neurodiverse learners can thrive, discover their unique strengths and co-create their future.”
IFS shares that ambition. Mathieu Bellamy, President of the IFS Conseil Executif (Board), described the partnership as a practical expression of the school’s values around diversity, respect and empathy, giving IFS students an opportunity to understand that diversity includes differences in how people learn and experience the world
Looking ahead
As we prepare for the move, our focus remains firmly on our students and families.
The transition will be carefully planned, with information briefings and campus walkthroughs for parents and staff ahead of the new academic term. The move has also been structured so that it does not disrupt IFS’s existing teaching, timetables or extracurricular activities.
There will be new spaces to explore, new faces to meet and, we hope, new friendships and experiences to come, but most importantly, there will be the same GUILD community at the centre of it.
