At City International School, we believe in a broader and more holistic education. Our philosophy is simple yet profound: to make every child the light of the world. This is not just a philosophy; it is a commitment to fostering a learning environment that nurtures not just intellect, but also character, compassion, and a global perspective. “Compete with Yourself”is the core part of our educational philosophy. It means we encourage students to focus on personal growth rather than on outperforming their peers. Instead of comparing their progress to others, students are taught to measure their success against their own past achievements. This approach fosters a growth mindset, resilience, and a love for continuous improvement. It empowers students to set and achieve their own goals, celebrating their unique journey of learning and development.

Our Unique Approach: Accelerated Learning for All (ALfA) To achieve this, we are proud to have successfully implemented our unique Accelerated Learning for All (ALfA) pedagogy. ALFA is designed to provide a more engaging and comprehensive education, truly accelerating learning for every student. It caters to individual needs and fosters a love for discovery. This approach empowers our students to reach their full potential and shine brightly in all their future undertakings. This commitment to personal growth and development is underpinned by our unwavering commitment of "Excellence in all things." From academics to extracurricular activities, we strive for the highest standards in every endeavor. This is about building resilience, fostering a passion for learning, and developing the skills needed to succeed in a rapidly changing world.

The 8 C's framework provides a comprehensive approach to education, focusing on a set of core competencies essential for success in the 21st century. This model goes beyond traditional academic skills to develop well-rounded individuals.
