ISN, a state-recognised Cambridge International School for all students aged between 4 and 18, focuses on differentiated learning within a highly respectful environment. With a school culture embedded in the belief that all human beings are unique and deserve to develop into their own personality, ISN combines the internationally recognised Cambridge programmes, elements from the renowned Swiss education group, SBW Haus des Lernens and other cutting-edge pedagogy to tailor its educational approach towards the individual needs of its students, or 'learning partners'.

ISN not only focuses on the academic success of our students (learning partners), but also recognises the importance of social and emotional development on the path of personal growth. At ISN we value the talents and passions of each learning partner equally, and support them as they dare to do what they dream.

From pre-school to university entry, our caring learning environment and small group sizes offer a wealth of opportunities for children and young people to develop their individual potential.

With a diverse community of learning partners from 20 different nations, ISN offers a caring family atmosphere for expatriates and local families alike. Expatriate families enjoy the social network at ISN which eases integration into a new location, while local German parents welcome that their children benefit from the innovative educational programme and English language instruction.

ISN offers the Cambridge Primary, Lower Secondary, IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) and A-level programmes, and is an accredited examination centre for Cambridge International Examinations.

Learning takes place in small class sizes, within caring learning environments, allowing our educators opportunities to differentiate learning material and approach each learning partner individually. As our pedagogic philosophy focuses on developing individual talents and passions, at ISN we understand that each child is unique, and some might require further academic, emotional or social support.

The ISN Curriculum encompasses the following programmes:

• Early Years (age 4)
• Cambridge Primary Years Programme (ages 5-11)
• Cambridge Lower Secondary Programme (ages 12-14)
• Cambridge Upper Secondary Programme - International General Certificate of Secondary Education or IGCSE (ages 15-16)
• Cambridge Advanced Programme - Cambridge International AS & A Levels (ages 17-18)

While the language of instruction is English, our German language programme caters to both native and non-native German speakers. For non-native English speakers, ISN offers an English as a Second Language programme (ESL) within its Primary Years, which supports our learning partners while they adjust to a new language.

ISN is based in a stunning 19th century historic landmark building close to the city centre of Neustadt an der Weinstrasse, a picturesque town in the Rhineland-Palatinate known for its beautiful castles and vineyards.

We warmly welcome you to visit our school, a unique place for learning and personal growth!
