Welcome Parents & Guardians

Thank you for entrusting MEL International School with your child’s education journey. We value your partnership and believe that strong collaboration between home and school is the cornerstone of each learner’s success.

At Mel International Schools, you’ll find everything you need to stay informed, engaged and supported as your child progresses through our vibrant school community.

Parent-School Partnership

At MEL we believe that the education of a child is best served when the school and parents work together in a spirit of cooperation, respect and open communication. Our aim is to build a supportive community where your input matters.
You are essential partners in:

  • helping your child arrive ready to learn (with correct uniform, materials, mindset)

  • reinforcing school values of respect, responsibility and positivity

  • communicating openly with teachers and staff about your child’s progress or concerns

  • attending key meetings such as parent-teacher conferences, orientations and events

  • fostering a home environment that complements school expectations.

From the very start of their learning journey at M.E.L International School, we strive to educate ethical, disciplined and motivated young people with strong cognitive, communicative, and social skills. We achieve this by offering a broad, balanced and innovative curriculum designed to provide an all-round education, from the moment our pupils join the school, to the moment they leave
