Some of the Special Qualities of ISP:
International
As soon as you enter our buildings, you will notice how diverse we are. Our students represent over 60 different countries and our teachers and staff represent more than 20!
English-speaking
While we are diverse, and many languages are spoken in the hallways, our common language, and the language of instruction, is English. However, we encourage and support the learning of mother-tongue languages, as best practice shows this to be an excellent way to learn.
Complete International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum
For 30 years, ISP has offered the IB Diploma. Our results are consistently above the world average and our students continue their education at many of the world’s best universities. In addition, we are the only school in France officially authorized to offer the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) and Middle Years Programme (MYP). We are very proud of this excellent curriculum, which prepares our students to be critical thinkers and global citizens.
Ideal location in the center of Paris
Today, ISP is composed of two campuses in the 16th arrondissement of Paris but is currently reviewing all of its operations as part of a strategy of growth that will see the school acquire an impressive third campus. In addition the Board of Trustees is currently in the process of launching a new Strategic Plan that will map out the future direction of the school.
Whether you are at our Primary School campus or the Secondary School, the Eiffel Tower is only minutes away. We are very much a city-centered school, housed in beautiful buildings in the elegant 16th arrondissement, with easy access to cafés, restaurants, shops, and parks.
Friendly and open
Our students, teachers, and staff are friendly and welcoming. It is, in fact, an important part of ISP’s mission to be tolerant of others and to “work in harmony.” We are accustomed to receiving new students to our school, and you will quickly become a part of our diverse and warm community. Our very active Parent Teacher Association is also on hand to make you feel welcome. Please come and visit us!
