International School Twente
International School Twente (IST) is an educational icon in the peaceful Twente region, located in the eastern Netherlands. Here, amid the natural beauty and technological advancements of the region, IST provides a nurturing environment for students to begin their path of academic excellence and personal growth. Away from the hectic pace of life in the west of the country, Twente offers a quiet setting that complements the vibrant study atmosphere at IST.
IST's mission is rooted in providing outstanding international primary and secondary education to a diverse student body. IST's vision focuses on creating Global Citizens, Inquisitive Learners, and School Communities. This vision reflects a commitment to not only achieving academic success but also building a supportive community where students feel included, cared for, and equipped with the skills to thrive in a connected world.
At the core of IST's educational philosophy are five values: Curiosity, Dedication, Honesty, Growth and Fun. These values are embedded in the Learner Profile in both Primary and Secondary Settings. In the future, IST plans to introduce a bilingual preschool, demonstrating its commitment to meeting the growing educational needs of the community. The bilingual program in collaboration with Humankind will provide a solid foundation for young students, ensuring a seamless transition into primary school at IST.
The route to education at IST takes place on two campuses. The Primary School caters for ages 4-11 and includes the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) alongside the UK National Curriculum. Meanwhile, the High School serves students aged 11-18 following the Cambridge International Secondary Curriculum and the esteemed International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP).
