SUMMARY

The International Schools Group (ISG) is a not-for-profit, future-focused school district in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. Our five schools are co-educational day schools delivering Kindergarten 1 to Grade 12 in the American program and Foundation Stage 1 through Year 13 in the British program to expatriate children and some students from the host country. Students enroll in either an American or British curriculum education that encompasses these higher-level programs: Advanced Placement (AP) Capstone Diploma and/or International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) at American School Dhahran, ISG Dammam, and ISG Jubail and (I)GCSE and A levels at British School Dhahran.

History

Founded in 1962 and now in its 62nd year, ISG was originally established to serve the needs of expatriate families working for the U.S. Consulate in Dhahran.

From its initial enrollment of six students to its present status as a district of five schools with approximately 3,000 students, ISG has earned a reputation for providing the highest quality American and British education. Today, over 50 nationalities make up the ISG community.

Governance

The district is governed by a Board of Trustees, supported by school councils, a partnership with the U.S. Consulate General Dhahran and is licensed by the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Education.

Accreditation

Our schools are accredited by the Middle States Association Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools (MSA-CESS), British Schools of the Middle East (BSME), British Schools Overseas (BSO) and the International Baccalaureate (IB).

Our Mission, Core Values, and Strategic Goals

We inspire innovation and compassionate action.

Respect, acceptance, integrity, responsibility … with a commitment to act.

ISG is committed to three strategic improvement goals: 1) Wellbeing and Belonging 2) High Quality Learning and 3) Professional Excellence. These goals will evolve through our current accreditation self-study and we are looking forward to our new pillars of strategic priorities.

ISG Learns

Our schools are guided by our district mission, vision, learning principles and assessment beliefs. Our shared focus is further complemented by the diversity of our community and core divisional curricula as we work in partnership with the community to educate tomorrow's future leaders. ISG maintains an emphasis on progressive teaching and learning. Curriculum and learning programs at ISG are evaluated and reviewed consistently, through the lens of current research and are reflective of the current research and best practices. This ensures that our programs support high quality learning and are being implemented in the most effective way in the classroom in order to support student learning, enhance program outcomes and learning targets in our unique learning environment.

The ISG Learning Report showcases academic success, college acceptances and professional development at ISG.
