International School of Western Australia
The International School of Western Australia (ISWA) in Perth provides a co-educational, local or international, non-denominational, exceptional education from Kindergarten to Year 12. The school follows the Western Australian curriculum through the esteemed International Baccalaureate (IB) Programme, renowned globally for its academic and personal rigor.
This educational approach at ISWA promotes inquiry and lifelong learning skills, empowering graduates with the independence and responsibility to pursue further studies anywhere in the world. ISWA provides two rigorous pathways for senior students in Years 11 and 12: the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP) and the US College Board Advanced Placement (AP). These pathways offer progressive alternatives to the WACE program, recognized for entry into Western Australian universities and global institutions.
Both the IB DP and AP pathways carry higher weightings for final results, significantly boosting eligibility for university entrance and scholarships. ISWA consistently earns recognition as one of Australia’s top schools for the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN). Students consistently perform above average across all grade levels and subjects compared to state, national and international averages. This is a particularly impressive achievement given that English is often a second language for many students.
The IB program at ISWA caters exceptionally well to gifted and talented students, providing an environment conducive to their growth and development. The school's dedication to academic excellence, coupled with its inclusive and diverse community, establishes a distinctive and supportive learning atmosphere. Students not only succeed academically but also experience personal growth, preparing them for success in higher education and on the international stage.
