IGCSE: First attempt, 100% success !!!

August 2010: ISN’s first IGCSE awards - International General Certificate of Secondary Education (the University of Cambridge International Examinations, UK).

In May 2010,  all of our 12 ‘learning partners’ (Grades 9-10) sat the prestigious and challenging IGCSE examinations in English, German, French, Combined Science, Mathematics, Computer studies, Geography, History and Business studies and ISN’s pass rate is 100% ! A rare achievement that puts our small ‘house of learning’ amongst the top schools worldwide.

IB Diploma Accreditation – 28 May 2010

Mr Adrian Kearney, Director of the International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBO)-Africa, Europe and Middle East region congratulated the International School of Neustadt / Weinstraße upon the school’s accreditation by the IBO to offer the IB Diploma Programme.

IB authorisation visit… A message from Sanjay.

Our IB visitors expressed their absolute satisfaction over the 2 days spent at our school, evaluating our ‘preparedness’ to offer the IB Diploma programme. This visit, which can also be summed up as a ‘fact-finding’ visit, consisted in the
analysis of (i) the physical structures in place – that is, classrooms, laboratory, library etc…(ii) pedagogical preparedness – that is, the qualifications, training, expertise and knowledge of our mentors; design of subject outlines; teaching standards and practices that reflect studentcenteredness, international-mindedness, collaborative planning and decision-making (iii) understanding, commitment and support of the IB Diploma programme from all the constituents of the school, that is CEOs, Board, PTA executive committee, parents, mentors and LPs.

Middle school news….

Dear LPs, mentors and parents,

I sincerely hope that you all had a wonderful break over Easter in spite of the unpredictably poor weather.

The final lap:

We have now entered the last term of school which will be another very exciting and very stressful step in the history of our school.
