ISL exists to serve the needs of the international community in London. It aims to maximize the achievement of its students throughout the curriculum and in personal and social fields. Drawing on the rich variety of cultures represented at the school, ISL aims to develop in each student a global outlook which seeks to understand and appreciate the attitudes and values of others.

ABOUT ISL - Philosophy & Objectives

Within the school community, all students are valued and treated equally. From the earliest years, the program leads towards the International Baccalaureate Diploma.

The curriculum has the following specific objectives:

  • To recognize the individual needs of each student and to meet them within the program as far as possible.


  • To foster an enthusiasm for learning.


  • To encourage the creative and artistic abilities of students.


  • To develop an analytical and critical approach to the world.


  • To encourage the confidence and self-respect of each individual.


  • To respect and support, and develop, where practicable, the culture of each student.


  • To help students to learn about and participate in the cultures and ways of life which they meet in the host country.


  • To enable students to understand global issues and the mutual responsibility of all communities for the world’s environment.


  • To develop the use of English not only as the language of instruction but as a means of communication.


  • To support students’ home language wherever possible through the classes in the school.


  • To support the physical development of students by the program of physical education and sports.


  • To extend the range of fields of achievement available to students through sports and other out-of-class activities.


  • To instill in each student the value of loyalty to the school community, thereby encouraging a strong sense of self discipline.


  • To assist with transfers into and out of the school and into continuing education.
