Teachers

The passion for teaching and learning of ISG faculty leads students to individual success

The diversity of the ISG faculty is reflected in their varied professional backgrounds and the 19 different nationalities that they represent. Most of them have spent significant time teaching and living in foreign countries, acquiring familiarity with the customs and language of the host country. This extensive cultural knowledge enriches our inclusive community when working with a diverse student body.

ISG recruits the majority of its new teachers internationally, through some of the most prestigious and accredited international school recruitment agencies.

The ISG Approach to teaching and learning

Our teachers are committed to creating a joyful, safe and caring learning environment, while engaging and challenging students to reach their best.

As well as striving to develop the academic potential of each and every one of our students, our teachers are committed to the school mission statement which sets out our goal of developing “a community of adaptable learners who inspire a love of learning that extends beyond the walls of the school.”
ISG teachers believe in the importance of exploring and developing the personal, social and cognitive skills that our children will need to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world. We seek to ensure that all pupils are equipped with the essential qualities of kindness, compassion, and respect for others, and that when each child leaves us they are skilled and confident in their ability to perform in a wide variety of contexts.
