We have been accredited by CIS (Council of International Schools) and MSA (Middle States Association) since 1990 and were pleased to be re-accredited in June 2000. ISN is the only school in the area to gain both quality marks of professional recognition. Accreditation involves a continual self-evaluation process that is monitored by professionals of the highest calibre. This process provides a guarantee for parents that ISN has the highest academic and professional standards.

Parents naturally seek an excellent education for their children, and expatriate parents in particular are faced with the additional difficulty of living in a new environment with few guidelines on how best to select the most appropriate school for their children's needs. The fact that a school is accredited provides parents with a number of assurances.

Parents know that the school :

• has undergone a rigorous self-assessment
• has been evaluated by a team of experienced professionals
• meets high academic and professional standards
• is subject to regular visits and monitoring by an external agency

In becoming accredited ISN joins a growing network of similar institutions dedicated to providing high quality education responsive to the needs of international communities worldwide.
