The World from our Classroom

ISN Nice has recently undergone extensive renovations, providing specific areas for problem solving, analytical thinking, imagination and creativity and digital skills while retaining the advantages of teamwork and collaboration. We believe the learning environment can play a crucial role in helping students to express themselves and to take care of their individual needs. Our teachers will work in flexible, adaptable spaces where they can guide and empower students in close collaboration.

STEAM 

Science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics play a crucial part in every student´s educational journey. Through a “hands-on, minds-on” approach to learning and teaching, students acquire the tools and critical thinking skills to approaching problems. STEAM education immerses students and teachers in inquiry, dialogue, problem-solving and experiential learning that deepens understanding across their whole school learning. The commitment to STEAM education empowers students to tackle real-world challenges with creativity and critical thinking.

Nurturing Unique Journeys

Guided by ISN Nice’s dedicated university counsellor, each student's journey is personalised to their unique aspirations and potential. The Futureproof university counselling programme starts in Grade 8 and continues all the way to Grade 12.  This helps to orient students towards courses connected to their career aims, individual potential and life-long learning aspirations.The results of the education offered and Futureproof approach speak for themselves, with over 95% of ISN Nice graduates transitioning directly to college or university. Last year, 100% of graduates who applied to university were offered a place, a testament to ISN Nice's unwavering commitment to student success.
