The school is coeducational and serves children from 40 nationalities. AISJ is committed to the development of the whole child and is founded on Christian beliefs and values whilst respecting the rich and diverse communities within the school and in its unique location. We strive to create a warm and caring environment, in which students, families, and staff feel respected and valued. PROGRAM AISJ offers a rigorous and varied academic program and first class pastoral care. The elementary curriculum in Pre-Kindergarten to grade 5 is broadly based on the International Primary Curriculum. Our nursery school opens in January 2015. In the secondary school, we offer the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program (MYP) for grades 6-10 and the Diploma Program (DP) for grades 11 and 12. Our curriculum is adapted to the needs of an international student body and responsive to the rich learning opportunities for study in the region. The courses offered in grades 9-12 also lead to an American high school diploma.
