The structure established at ISCS promotes decentralized leadership with the school being divided in four different phases, each one with a director being the educational leader on site.

• Foundation phase
• Lower Primary phase
• Higher Primary phase
• Secondary phase

This site-based approach delegates more decision-making authority at each phase level.

The site-based management results in:

• Higher student performance, as decisions are made closest to where programming is provided for students.
• More efficient use of resources
• Increased skills and satisfaction in school admin and teachers

The management consists of professionals from Britain and other countries who have been carefully selected for their excellent qualifications, experience and diverse expertise. They are specialists who complement each other in their various skills, areas of knowledge and competencies. They all have a proven track record of success in education management. This success stems from the clear vision they carry in education and its application to the present time.

Staff

The staff at ISCS are carefully selected from the international educational community for their experience and dedication to the vision and mission of the school.

In ISCS’s commitment to continuously achieving excellence in a dynamic world, all teaching staff at the school are required to participate in the school’s Continuing Professional Development programme developed with training institutions and universities from the UK. This ensures staff remain abreast of the latest developments in education and teaching techniques to provide the most effective educational experience possible for our pupils.
