At ZIS, we encourage students to discover new ideas and possibilities, and learn by trying and doing. They’ll be inspired to go further, but take their own path. That means that what they learn will be transferable and transformative.
We will provide an education that builds on who each child is, as well as what they know. We will ensure that every student understands the importance of good values, and the power they hold to make the world better. And we will ensure that ZIS supports every child’s social, emotional and mental wellbeing throughout their journey with us.
We provide an education for tomorrow’s opportunities. We pledge to deliver outstanding teaching, led by well-supported teachers. We provide clearly-defined academic and co-curricular activities, with a strong focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).
We will develop true global citizens who recognize the value of their local community. Your child will be open to different cultures, backgrounds and perspectives. They will understand the importance of inclusion and equity. And – through our excellent German pathways and local connections – we will help your child develop a bond with their community and a desire to support it.
Our goal is to ensure that every child leaves with a love of learning. That means that – wherever they go – they’ll approach every new experience with the thrill of discovery, rather than the fear of failure.
