The International School of London (ISL) was established in
1972 and welcomes girls and boys of all nationalities from age
3 to 18.
ISL follows the IB Primary Years Programme throughout all
the primary classes, from early childhood 1 to grade 5. Using
the PYP we are able to provide students with an international
curriculum that focuses on developing the whole child.
The secondary curriculum follows the IB Middle Years
Programme and the full IB Diploma Programme.
Comprehensive and integrated English as a Second Language
programmes are available at all ages. Non-English speaking
students are admitted at primary and secondary levels and
given special English language support through intensive
English or ESL courses.
ISL offers a comprehensive mother tongue programme at
PYP, MYP and DP level, which is fully integrated into the
regular curriculum. Current languages taught include Arabic,
Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish,
Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.
To join ISL, parents will need to provide the Admissions
