ENGAGING AND PURPOSEFUL LEARNING AT ISPS
At ISPS, learning is active, purposeful, and deeply engaging. Students are immersed in authentic learning experiences that invite them to take ownership of their education, supported by strong teaching, innovative resources, and an international context. As a result, they develop confidence as learners, a global perspective, and the skills needed to engage thoughtfully with an ever-changing world.
Academic excellence stands first and foremost among the characteristics of international education. In collaboration with our passionate, experienced faculty, our students become inspired to think for themselves and believe in their abilities.
Our international accreditations and best practices curriculum develop students who possess an exceptional spirit for learning, leading, and citizenship. Students focus on the skills and qualities that will lead to achievement in future roles as students, employees, citizens, and community members.
We believe that our academic programme provides your child with a global education passport, equipping them to study anywhere in the world.
Our goal at The International School of Port of Spain is to inspire students to become “difference makers, future shapers.” To achieve this, we offer challenging and high-quality programmes.
We are an authorized World School for the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP) and the Middle Years Programme (MYP). In High School, our students work towards earning their US High School Diploma, with opportunities to pursue Advanced Placement (AP) and the AP Capstone Diploma. Through our combined curriculum, we aim to develop knowledgeable, responsible, and caring young people prepared to live in an ever-changing world.

Best decision we ever made... by the end of the first year, he just thrived.
The only thing I wanted for my child was for him to really find joy in learning...
a love for understanding his culture and his country.
The international school answered every single one of those points. The teachers gave him 120% support. He went from zero to a hundred.Parent, Natacha Jones
