🎨✨ Looking back on our inspiring IB Diploma Grade 12 Art Exhibition

Since its inception over 50 years ago, ISL has fostered a culture of innovation, creativity, and continuous improvement — qualities brought vividly to life through the work of our talented Grade 12 artists.

From bold ideas to deeply personal perspectives, the exhibition celebrated the creativity, curiosity and individual expression at the heart of an ISL education.
We are proud that many of our visual arts students continue on with further studies at University of the Arts London (UAL) and other prestigious institutions across the UK and the world.

Celebrating academic excellence, ambition and achievement at ISL. 🎓✨

Our latest IB Diploma results reflect the dedication and commitment of our students, the excellence of our teaching, and the academic rigour at the heart of an ISL education.

With a highest score of 43 out of 45, 35% of students achieving 38 points or above, and an average score of 33.2 — ahead of the world average of 30.8 — we are incredibly proud of what our students have achieved.

Our international identity also shines through, with an outstanding 62% of students earning a Bilingual Diploma, more than double the world average of 27%.

But at ISL, achievement goes beyond results. We cultivate critical thinkers, innovators and problem-solvers, equipping students with the knowledge, confidence and skills to thrive at leading universities, in future careers and in an evolving global world.

These results represent more than numbers. Behind every score is an individual journey of ambition, perseverance and growth — success stories that demonstrate the difference an ISL education can make.

Congratulations to our students, teachers and the entire ISL community on another year of outstanding achievement.

For over fifty years, the International School of London (ISL) has shaped global citizens in the heart of London. More than a school, and with the International Baccalaureate as more than a curriculum, ISL is where curiosity becomes confidence, potential becomes purpose, and learning becomes a lifelong journey.

Education is lived, not simply taught. Our students master technical expertise alongside the creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking needed to seize global opportunities and shape a rapidly changing world. Through immersive, real-world experiences, they don’t just acquire knowledge — they apply it, challenge it, and bring it to life. Every experience inspires them to think boldly, act with purpose, and transform challenges into opportunities.

At the heart of this journey is wellbeing. We know that true success begins with feeling seen, supported, and empowered. By placing wellbeing at the centre of every student’s experience, we nurture resilience, balance, and a strong sense of belonging — creating the confidence to take risks, embrace new perspectives, and soar beyond expectations.

The result is far more than academic achievement. Our graduates leave ISL exam-ready, but more importantly, life-ready: compassionate, multilingual globally minded young people with the courage to lead, the agility to adapt, and the character to make a meaningful difference wherever life takes them. They don’t just prepare for the future — they are ready to shape it.

At ISL, a child’s first school experience is the beginning of a lifelong journey of curiosity, confidence and discovery. Our Early Childhood programme provides a nurturing environment where every child feels safe, valued and inspired to explore. Through play-based, inquiry-led learning, children develop independence, creativity, communication skills and a genuine love of learning – all while building the strong foundations that will support them throughout their education and beyond.

Set within our unique London campus, with access to green outdoor spaces and a truly international community, children learn to understand themselves, appreciate others and embrace the world around them. Every experience is carefully designed to nurture academic, social and emotional growth, ensuring that each child thrives as curious, balanced, and caring individuals.

At ISL, we don’t simply prepare children for school – we prepare them for life.

🌱 Nurturing foundations for future success.

🌍 A globally minded community.

💙 Personalised learning for every child.

✨ Inspiring confidence, curiosity and a lifelong love of learning.

We are delighted to announce that ISL has been officially accredited by the IB to offer the IB Career-related Programme (CP) in Enterprise & Entrepreneurship from September!

The CP brings together the rigour of an IB education with real-world, career-focused learning - ideal for students ready to build practical skills in applied knowledge, critical thinking, communication, and cross-cultural understanding.

🔬🥼🌟 Our students brought science to life through creativity, innovation and collaboration at the ISL Science Exhibition: Science in Action!

Our young scientists-in-the-making - the PYP Science Challenge Club - ran an interactive station with fascinating hands on experiments. Grade 8 students explored ‘Science in Action’ by developing projects that applied their understanding to real-world contexts, while Grade 9 students focused on ‘Innovations in Science’, investigating how scientific principles can be used to improve the function of machines. Meanwhile, our Grade 11 students impressed us with their Collaborative Science Projects, showcasing strong teamwork, in-depth inquiry and confident science communication.

It was inspiring to see critical thinking and passion for science on display - well done to all! 👏

Behind many memorable moments at our school is a dedicated group of people who give their time, energy and creativity to strengthen our community – our wonderful PTA.

Throughout the year, the PTA works tirelessly, often behind the scenes, to organise events and initiatives that enrich school life for our students, families and staff. Their efforts create not just events, but lasting memories and connections across our school community.

This week provided another example of their generosity and kindness when they hosted a Staff Recognition Buffet to celebrate our teachers and staff. It was a joyful occasion featuring delicious food, thoughtful gifts and lots of fun! Most importantly, it was a heartfelt expression of appreciation for everyone at ISL who supports, inspires and cares for our students every day.

We are very grateful for the PTA’s ongoing commitment – helping to create the vibrant, supportive community that makes our school so special.

Thank you for all that you do. 💛
