We offer an exceptional world of learning for every student. Starting with a genuinely warm welcome to our multi-cultural environment, we work with each child to devise an individual learning programme tailored to their unique needs and goals. Our strong focus on student wellbeing, in a supportive environment, is complemented in the classroom by dynamic teaching practises. It’s this all-round approach that we believe leads to the academic and personal success that characterises ISL pupils.
We actively support the maintenance of a student’s culture and first language by offering lessons in their mother tongue as part of the main curriculum.
Our pastoral focus is to find ways to further develop an inclusive, caring and supportive environment for all.

ISL was the first school in the UK to offer the
International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme.
Big enough to make a difference, small enough to care.
Our 1:6 student/teacher ratio on average helps ensure individual attention.
After the IB at ISL students go on to study a course that is right for them.
Our students score an average of 35.2 out of possible 45 points, with the two highest achieving 44 points.
ISL truly embraces the fact that we are a multicultural school. This is reflected in our teaching staff who come from all over the world and everybody belongs because everybody is different.
We don't have one dominant group. In all lessons we actively seek to celebrate our rich cultural diversity.
Although there are more languages spoken in school, we offer lessons at mother tongue level in 25 different languages. Wherever you are from, we speak your language.

Grade 6 students have been investigating ancient civilisations in Individuals and Societies. As a way to complete their independent inquiry, students have created a replica to reflect the culture, beliefs and characteristics of their chosen civilisation, using the Design cycle.
This week the Grade 9 students have been able to use our stage at 139 to record a short scene that they have been working on this this term, as part of their Drama unit on Edgar Allan Poe...
This week EC1 students explored and experimented with media and materials finding out about their properties and modifying and manipulating them. It included exploring sounds, patterns, movement and different tools and techniques while creating their own stories around them.
