Here at IIS, our mission is to prepare our students to contribute and adapt to an advanced modern world along with acquiring the keys of success in their post studies and careers; Arming them with excellence in teaching, a highly personal approach, and a technology-enriched learning environment.

As the Superintendent of IIS, I believe that instilling the value of our heritage and preparing our students for the future will converge towards creating world-class leaders; Ones who are significantly contributive to the global community. From K to 12 our educational vision is implemented through a comprehensive mission in education applied by a hand picked team of faculty who are known for their passion for education and their ability to blend time-tested pedagogy and targeted teaching, with modern, cutting-edge strategies and individual differentiation.

I personally along with the faculty and our extraordinary students believe in the importance of trust, respect, innovation and a sense of community. I am absolutely gratified that the development of the school over the past few years has been significant. Our school has announced proudly the opening of our second branch which wouldn’t have happened without hard work and a clear vision and mission which meets our high standards. The future will build on these firm foundations focusing on the quality of school life, especially for the benefit of our learners.
