Welcome to the International School of Schaffhausen,

Since our founding in Schaffhausen in 1999, our vision has been clear; to offer students more than just a traditional education and to acknowledge that ‘Each Mind has its own Method’.

As you walk through the doors of our school, you will immediately sense the warmth and welcoming atmosphere of our close-knit family. Housed within a historically rich building, we seamlessly blend the latest advancements in teaching and learning with a global perspective.

At ISSH, you are more than just a student; you become a lifelong learner, a caring friend, and a responsible member of our community.

Our educational philosophy is firmly rooted in our core values of embracing uniqueness, fostering personal responsibility, and unlocking individual potential. One distinctive aspect of our school is our commitment to maintaining small class sizes. This approach enables our dedicated staff to foster strong relationships with students and ensures that all individuals can access the curriculum at their own pace.

We proudly identify ourselves as an international school with a Swiss heart. This means that while we embrace diversity and multiculturalism, we also cherish the values and traditions that Switzerland represents. It’s this unique blend of global perspectives and Swiss values that sets ISSH apart.

We invite you to join us in your educational journey, where our commitment goes beyond academic excellence. Our aim is to develop well-rounded individuals who are ready to make a positive impact on the world.

We sincerely appreciate your choice in partnering with us on this educational endeavour. Together, let’s create a rewarding experience filled with achievement, progress, and cherished memories.
