Founded in 1948, the International School of Belgrade (ISB) is an independent, co-educational international day school that enrols students from ages three to eighteen
As an authorised IB World School, ISB provides a high-quality, college-preparatory education with an emphasis on internationalism and global responsibility. The curriculum is designed to serve a multi-national student body using English as the language of instruction.
For ISB’s year 12 students, graduation isn’t just a ceremony; it’s the culmination of years of hard work and dedication, supported by a team of committed educators. At the heart of this system lies our University Counseling Office and Diploma Coordinator, who offer personalised assistance with university applications, standardised testing and career exploration. Our team helps students identify their strengths, interests and goals, navigating the often- daunting university selection and application process. With individualised attention and a wealth of resources, students are empowered to make informed decisions about their future academic and professional endeavours.
Beyond academics, ISB’s Diploma Coordinator and teachers play crucial roles. Coordinators offer emotional support and monitor progress, while teachers invest their expertise in each student, ensuring they not only excel academically, but also develop the skills and confidence required to succeed beyond high school. Central to our approach is the recognition that every student is unique, with distinct aspirations and talents. To this end, our counsellors work closely with individuals to tailor their post-secondary plans to align with their aptitudes and goals. Whether a student dreams of pursuing a career in the arts, sciences, humanities, or any other field, we strive to connect them with opportunities that will nurture their passions and unlock their full potential.
ISB celebrated its 70th year of Excellence in Education in 2018, with thousands of children having passed through its portals of knowledge over the decades since the school was founded. In addition to individualised support, ISB provides opportunities for students to explore their interests and gain real-world experience. Initiatives like the ISB Career Insight Day and visits from university representatives expose students to a diverse range of career pathways and higher education options, helping them make informed decisions about their future. By connecting students with alumni and professionals in various fields, we inspire them to pursue their passions and seize opportunities for growth and exploration.
The journey towards life after high school begins long before graduation day. At ISB, we understand the importance of laying a strong foundation early on to ensure that students are prepared for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Our homeroom programme is designed to help students develop self-awareness, explore their interests and build a strong academic and extracurricular profile. Through experiential learning opportunities, community service projects and guidance, we empower students to become well-rounded individuals ready to provide meaningful contributions to society.
As graduation approaches, ISB celebrates the journey of its graduating class. This is a moment to acknowledge the hard work, dedication and perseverance that brought them to this pivotal moment. The school’s transition programme embodies ISB’s commitment to nurturing the success of its graduates, preparing them not only for the challenges of higher education, but also for the opportunities and experiences that await beyond. So, as ISB bids farewell to its graduating class, it does so with confidence, knowing its students are wellequipped to thrive in the next chapter of their lives.
