Parents' Voices
At CIS, there are children from so many different countries, they can learn from each other's cultures. From their personalities, to their independence, and even their English fluency - we've seen tremendous growth. They've also started joining school sports events, and my daughter is now passionate about art. They're becoming more confident, cheerful and growing into exactly who we hoped they would be.

Students' Voices
"Many of us have been together since early years. While some classmates transferred to hyper-focused schools, my parents and I always valued CIS's balanced approach. We are nurtured as future leaders through a diverse, global community brimming with extracurriculars and leadership opportunities."
—— Aisha, CIS Class of 2025, 12 Years in CIS
"CIS is a place where you're supported in exploring anything you're passionate about. The teachers are incredibly knowledgeable, but more than that, they're patient and truly want to see you grow. And when things get tough, there's always someone willing to help. So don't limit yourself!"
“These seven years at CIS have greatly enriched my life. Being immersed in such a diverse and international environment like CIS broadened my perspectives and taught me the value of global exposure. The vast opportunities at CIS, such as serving as 2023-24 Student Council President, organising events, enhancing student life, and advocating for my peers, allowed me to develop important leadership and management skills. Participating in debates and TED events at CIS helped me overcome my fear of public speaking and become more confident too.”
“All the knowledge, memories and relationships we’ve gained and formed develop and shape us into better people; people ready to change the world.”
—— Adrian, CIS Class of 2024
My experience at CIS had a profound impact on my personal growth and overall development. The diverse cultural environment, from teachers to activities, helped me understand and respect differences in religion, food, and lifestyles. I remember an International Day event where we shared food and culture from our countries—it really showed me the joy of cross-cultural exchange.
