WHAT MAKES ISB DIFFERENT

Internationally Recognised Academic Programme

We help students grow as global citizens ready to make a positive impact on their world. For younger learners, our English-German Junior School programme helps students integrate into the local community while developing global perspectives. In Middle and Senior School, our English programme is complemented with German, French and Spanish classes at various levels. We take pride in our students consistently achieving top results, placing ISB among the leading schools worldwide.

Holistic Education

We inspire well-rounded individuals to discover their passions and pursue their dreams. We focus on the whole child, fostering intellectual, creative and artistic growth. Our curriculum, enriched by a wide range of extracurricular activities, ensures that students can explore their passions—whether in music, sports, art, technology, or service.

Inclusive and Diverse School

At ISB, everyone is welcomed! Our welcoming, diverse community values each student’s individuality, providing tailored support to ensure every child reaches their full potential. We welcome students with different backgrounds and abilities, adapting our approaches to their individual needs.

Embracing Innovation

We equip students with the tools and ethics to embrace innovation responsibly. Digital learning is embedded in all aspects of our curriculum, providing students with the knowledge and tools to engage meaningfully with technology in an ethical and responsible manner.

Wellbeing at the Core

We nurture the whole child: mind, body and heart. Through dedicated programmes for students and teachers, we foster their social, emotional and physical health, providing a supportive and welcoming environment where everyone feels valued, loved and respected.
