An international school education gives pupils a wider range of openings around the world, many of which prefer international qualifications.

 international schools use English as their principal medium of instruction. This provides pupils with a strong background in English (the world’s main international language).

International school curricula impart skills such as those that refine critical thinking, time management and problem solving as well as subject-specific knowledge. These skills are enormously important in enabling pupils to think, act and decide independently in their education, careers and lives generally.

International school communities tend to be multinational, thus exposing their pupil members to a range of cultures, enhancing their confidence and their empathy / communication aptitudes and expediting what often blossoms into lifelong friendships that transcend national and ethnic boundaries.

The ability to understand other people’s and other cultures’ perspectives conferred by teaching empathy skills is an immensely valuable asset for pupils and career professionals all over the world, whatever university degree or job they may pursue.

Most international schools combine the impartation of knowledge about, and pride in, pupils’ indigenous traditions with those of other cultures (international school pupils thus derive the best of both worlds)

International schooling offers an excellent preparation for world citizenship with a truly global outlook.
