    Opinions of parents and students

    quote

    Both my sons love the school. I am happy with the progress they make and that they are treated individually. Both kids have fantastic, motivated and caring teachers.

    Parent - Jim Bank

    quote

    Our daughters, who are now 11 and 13 years old, started attending this school almost 3 years ago and we are pleased about it. Every passing year they came with improvements, which is very important for both students and school's progress. We are happy to see that children are involved in so many activities and projects during classes and not only. The teachers are focused on every abilities and skills children have and encourage and support them. We highly recommend the school.

    Former Parent - Denisa Amministrazione

    quote

    Great English-speaking school with individual approach for every culturally and linguistically diverse students; The education system seems to be improving from year to year. This school responds well to any concern I raise and regularly receive valuable information from the school about my child's progress. A lot of extra-curricular (social, political and sport) activities, encouraging development of talent, creativity and students social skills to the maximum level.

    Parent - Jennet Arshimova

    quote

    My son attended IAS during his grade 11 year. I highly rate the school’s program and teachers’ attitude towards their students. A student can choose the program that is suitable for his or her educational goals: IB, American High School or Polish matura. The program incorporates the world’s current challenges and uses modern methods of teaching.

    Angelina Sarota - Former Parent

    quote

    Our son attended IAS for his final year of high school. He transferred from a different international school in Warsaw. This was a challenging time for him. We met with the staff to plan his transition and choose his subjects. IAS reached out and assisted our son from the beginning of the year, through the rough parts and the end. Our son graduated in June 2019 and now is a student of Warsaw Medical University (WUM). We are proud of him and we are thankful for the hard work and dedication of IAS.

    Anthony Król

    quote

    My son and I are big fans of IAS. They are one of the most balanced schools we have experienced. Firstly, they have a diverse group of students, without cliques of “popular kids”. They accept the fact that there are different kids with different talents and needs. For the talented they provide all the opportunities to excel. For those who might need help they offer support and an individual approach. Teachers treat all the students like partners on the educational journey.
