4worldlovers: At ISM, we work tirelessly to ensure every student fulfils their potential. At each stage of their learning journey, your child will receive the right balance of challenge and support, tailored to their needs and goals. This includes the opportunity to join our Most Able and Talented (MAT) Programme, which accelerates our most gifted students’ progress.

From the Early Years Foundation Stage through to IGCSEs and A-levels, all our students follow the world-renowned English National Curriculum. We’re the only school in Moscow to offer this rigorous British education from 2 to 18, which we carefully adapt to our international context. Used by more than 30,000 schools worldwide, the curriculum is also globally respected by the best universities.

Our personalised approach to learning – which also includes expert pastoral and wellbeing support – sees our students get excellent results. Every year, they achieve IGCSE and A-level grades far higher than the UK national average. This hard-earned success takes our graduates to the very best universities in the UK, Europe, North America, and Asia, including Oxford, Cambridge, UCLA, and Imperial College London.


Every day at ISM is packed with exciting opportunities to learn. Our supportive and enabling community is the perfect place to try new things, too.

From Year 4, your child will go on residential trips that build their confidence and independence, encourage teamwork, and take them out of their comfort zone. We also offer a rich programme of educational and cultural visits around Moscow. Each activity is carefully planned to broaden perspectives and add a real-world dimension to your child’s learning.

Our cutting-edge STEAM programme, which is delivered in collaboration with the world-renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), opens our students’ eyes to the marvels of science, technology, engineering, art, and maths. Channelling their curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking skills, your child will work with friends to solve practical problems set by MIT professors.


We also run more than 50 extra-curricular clubs. These include a plethora of sporting activities, including kayaking and mountain biking in the beautiful natural spaces of our Rosinka Campus to journalism, drama, and cyber discovery. And on our fantastic instrumental programme, your child will pursue their passion for music, learning from the very best teachers and achieving outstanding exam success.

Being part of the Nord Anglia family enables us to attract and retain the most talented people, who have an in-depth knowledge of the English National Curriculum. All our teachers hold UK qualified status or equivalent, and many have a Master’s degree or PhD, too. Importantly, all our Primary and core subject teachers are native English-speakers, something that’s unique among schools in Moscow.


With a teacher-student ratio of one to eight, your child will receive the personalised care and attention they need to flourish. Our teachers will get to know their learning needs and preferences, as well as their passions, strengths, and ambitions for the future. This includes nurturing their personal growth, as well as making sure they achieve academically.

We also support their career aspirations by offering a Master’s in International Education and senior leadership programmes.


At ISM, we challenge our children to consider how they can make the world a better place.


Globally, our students drive change through our collaboration with UNICEF.
