Media Centre
Digital and analogue work equipment is part of everyday school life
The IB Diploma Years Programme is an inquiry based curriculum which challenges the students to prepare research questions, define hypothesis and investigate using various primary and secondary sources. The Library and Media Centre is of central importance in this respect and accommodates the students in their various independent studies.

research sources
ISSH has a collection of primary sources for the Middle Years and Diploma Programmes. Non-fiction books in all major subjects and a selection of recognized magazines are available to the secondary student
Fiction in 3 languages
Even in the virtual era, books are cherished by many as sources of knowledge and inspiration. Most ISSH students and staff members love to dig into a good book. A broad selection of top titles in world literature is available in the 3 languages at ISSH (English, French and German)
Destiny-System
Destiny is the name of library software, used by many international schools. Through keywords that included in the system, the students not only get access to the books available in the library and their contents. The system also contains links to many online sources and encyclopaedias, which can also be accessed via the link on the ISSH library website.
ManageBac
We use the ManageBac System to communicate with students and parents on homework, absences, assessments, deadlines and behaviour matters.
Study Area
Students at ISSH are encouraged to find their personal routines for successful learning. Many students will benefit from the inspiring environment a media centre can offer. Individual study tables and a reading corner are available to students to study, read a novel or nurture their passion for knowledge. Additionally, our Diploma Programme students have a common room available. This can be used for study purposes and socialising activities.
