SMALL CLASS SIZES

With smaller classes, students and their teachers form an intimate family, allowing for enhanced individual and group learning opportunities. NIS has a long-standing policy of a maximum of 15 students in a class, with 13 being the average. Where a class has up to 16 or more students, the class would be split into two.

A PLACE WHICH HELPS YOU REACH YOUR GOALS

At NIS, we believe that one of the best ways for students to strengthen their leadership skills, build character, gain experience, develop a global mind set and contribute to the school community is to take on formal leadership roles. We have created service opportunities through our house system, assembly system, student council system and global festivities that remind us of exemplary people and events that inspire us to be all and to do all. Students who assume leadership roles play a major part in keeping our school community fun, vibrant, healthy, safe and inclusive.
