At the International Schools Partnership, iSP, our shared purpose with every school is to grow the world's most curious, confident minds. We lead the way with our Learning.First™ approach—where every moment in our schools is designed to support students in becoming the best version of themselves. Our schools empower learners to explore their passions, challenge themselves with Good Struggles, and experience Amazing Learning every day.Each student takes on the role of a co-pilot in their educational journey, actively shaping their learning experience with the guidance of expert teachers. Together, we build the life competencies that students need to thrive, not just in school, but in life.
Each iSP school is wonderfully unique. iSP values are blended with each school’s local strengths, ensuring learners receive a world-class education that is also deeply connected to their community. Our personalised pathways mean that no two learning journeys are the same - we meet every learner where they are and help them thrive. Diversity is truly a core strength of our global community.

for our students
They are not just participants; they are leaders of their learning, constantly pursuing questions that spark their curiosity. Every learner makes progress in ways that matter most to them. We focus on personalised pathways that nurture academic, emotional and social growth. Students are co-pilots, making choices that personalise their learning experiences and allow them to lead their growth.
for our schools
Each iSP school is unique, blending local culture with global connections to provide students with enriching experiences. We leverage the power of a global network, accessing shared ideas, expertise and experiences. All iSP schools benefit from a continuous evidence-based improvement process known as the LIP - Learning Improvement Process, which measures the quality of learning
for our teachers and leaders
Developing curious, confident students starts with curious confident teachers and leaders empowered and encouraged to lead their own continuous learning. We support our people in their professional growth to ensure they are always inspiring the next generation. They gain access to iSP Learning Hub platform and have extensive accredited training to master the Learning.First™ approach and develop their self-efficacy to contribute to the school, students and their own personal growth
