History and Ethos
The International School of Moscow (ISM) is one of the leading international schools in Moscow, offering contemporary British international education to students from 2 to 18 years of age, from Early Years through to Secondary and Sixth Form.
Since opening in 2007, ISM has become the school of choice for expatriate and Russian families, looking to provide their children with the highest levels of education.
The school is part of Nord Anglia Education, a growing network of over 70 schools established across the globe. ISM, through Nord Anglia Education, collaborates with world-leading organisations, including the Juilliard School, MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and UNICEF.
In 2021, ISM A Level students, yet again, achieved record-breaking results in their examinations. Over the past six years, over a hundred students have graduated from ISM. A third of these students have entered the TOP-100 Universities, including the University of Oxford, Cambridge University, UCLA, The University of Amsterdam and The University of Toronto.
Location and Facilities
ISM is nestled in two of Moscow’s most exclusive areas: Krylatskoe and Rosinka International Residences.
In the west of the city, ISM Krylatskoe is based at the heart of a protected national park and is surrounded by sports facilities. The campuses welcome students from 3 to 18 years of age and offer unique Secondary and Sixth Form opportunities, due to the large international student body and the wide variety of (I)GCSE and A level subjects.
ISM Rosinka welcomes students from 2 to 11 years of age. The campuses are located inside Rosinka’s gated territory and set against the stunning backdrop of the Krasnogorsky Forest. ISM Rosinka is a unique, safe, family-friendly community school that offers an exceptional outdoor programme.
