VISION 2026
Exceptional Progress |
---|
Where we have students making exceptional progress in their studies way beyond what even they themselves think they are capable of, where we can be as sure as we ever can be that all students set off into the world with the personal skills, aptitudes and international mindset to allow them to thrive in the modern world. |
Challenging Curriculum for All |
Where we have a challenging, inclusive English language-based curriculum, one which is built upon the foundations of reading, writing and arithmetic, and which is shaped according to the skills and knowledge our students need in the 21st century world. |
High Expectations |
Where we have the highest expectations of students and ourselves, where every student, no matter her or his starting point, is expected to work as hard as possible, and behave as well as she or he can, without qualification. |
Evidence-based Teaching and Learning |
Where we have truly great, evidence-based teaching and learning, where we have collaborated as a whole staff on identifying what works and we evaluate our practice regularly against what we know works. |
Best Training Programmes |
Where we have the very best training programmes for our staff, where every single colleague has a high quality development programme mapped out for them the moment they begin working at our school. |
Unqualified Support of Our Parents |
Where we have the unqualified support of our parents, where parents have the highest aspirations for their children, and where they work with us in partnership in educating their children. |
Cherish Well-being |
Where we cherish well-being, where every single one of us is wholly committed to our work, but has time to enjoy life beyond ISB, with family and friends, so that the school/home balance is in true harmony and we embody a celebratory, sustainable approach to life. |
Core Set of Values |
Where we have a core set of values by which we live, where our core values – Respect, Honesty and Kindness – direct our every interaction to the point where they are interwoven throughout every aspect of the School. |
Reputation |
Where we have the highest reputation, one we genuinely deserve, where our excellence is manifest, where we are working at the heart of an international community and local community, a school at which the best teachers and support staff want to come and work, and students from around the world want to come and learn – because they know they will thrive. |
