Vision and Mission

Our Vision

"At ISH our vision is to develop a community of caring, compassionate, honest, open-minded global citizens who enjoy learning in critical and creative ways.


We strive to develop a positive sense of self and engage with our world on a local and global scale."

At ISH we enable the fulfillment of our vision by:

  • providing dynamic, world-recognised teaching programmes with inquiry-based learning at the core

  • encouraging all members of the school community to engage in matters of worldwide interest and take part in service activities that aim to make a difference in the local and global community or the physical world

  • emphasising positive personal and learning values in daily life and learning (thoughtfulness and respect, principles and morality, communication and cooperation, resilience and adaptability)

  • guiding students to reach their full potential as thinkers and lifelong learners by taking risks and reflecting on knowledge and experience

  • facilitating an encouraging, positive environment in which students are equally supported and challenged to achieve

  • welcoming and respecting all members of our school community
