International Families​

The diversity within our student and parent community is arguably our greatest resource. Our families represent approximately sixty nationalities and a range of cultural backgrounds, languages and beliefs.
Our diversity provides our community with a rich opportunity to learn both with and from one another. Students develop an open-mind and develop an understanding that other people, with their differences, can also be right.

International Staff​

Our staff is also international; both by passport and also via experience. The majority of our staff have lived, worked and/or grown up in several different countries. Our staff possess intercultural competence; the ability to function effectively across cultures.

Most TIS staff speak additional languages.

To develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect

International Programs & Approaches

Our curriculum, teaching and learning methodology is international.

Students learn about big ideas, skills and strategies which transcend cultures and political boundaries. Students are encouraged to empathize, critique and consider a range of perspectives as they learn.

Staff not only teach this, they model this in and beyond the classroom.
