SIS - A Complete Education for Every Student

Our students are encouraged to open their hearts and minds to the joy of learning, to discover their strengths, identify their passions and develop outstanding learning skills. We nurture a thirst for knowledge and a natural inquisitiveness. We celebrate achievement and aim for the highest academic standards.

We enable students to develop skills, knowledge and understanding through exciting learning programmes, allowing them to explore their own learning preferences and nurture their individual talents. We create opportunities for students to discover their spiritual, mental, emotional, social and physical aspects.

We care deeply about our students and support them through a comprehensive range of pastoral services. We encourage them to develop effective habits of personal vision, leadership, management and learning, with the self-motivation and desire to succeed. Our goal is for students to find their unique and authentic voice.

Students follow inter-disciplinary programmes that bring together the important academic subjects in a coherent and integrated manner. Through a rich curriculum, we aim to develop in students an enduring inter-cultural awareness, a spirit of inquiry and a sense of community service and global environmental responsibility.

We aim to do this by:

• Focusing on the whole child

The school follows a philosophy of child-focused, holistic learning.  We believe in developing an enduring love of learning in our students and in the attainment of excellence. We aim to develop students with lively, inquiring minds with the ability to question, think rationally and analytically, to be creative and to have the motivation to achieve goals.

• Offering a rich cultural diversity

The SIS community consists of more than 35 different nationalities. In a world where borders are disappearing, the mix of nationalities and backgrounds offers a welcome breadth of cultural experiences to the school community. This enables students to develop an understanding and appreciation of the cultural diversity that surrounds them and to have respect for the values of other cultures, races, religions and ways of life.

• Focusing on academic success

The school is proud of the academic achievements of its graduates who have entered top universities around the world. This reflects the strong academic and guidance programmes offered by SIS, enabling students to achieve their best.

• Providing outstanding facilities for learning

We have an outstanding purpose-built, high-technology campus designed to reflect our philosophy of collaborative learning that develops independent, high-achieving, globally aware, lifelong learners.
