School Values

Inquisitive

We are eager learners cultivating a desire for knowledge that extends beyond the classroom. We promote intellectual honesty and equip students with tools of critical thinking that expand ideas of what’s possible, both academically and personally.

Inviting

Our Hello is a commitment to exchange ideas and experiences with one another. At ISG, everyone is welcome, equal and honoured for their particularities. Celebrating our shared culture allows us to flourish as a community of individuals.

Sincere

We communicate sincerely to convey our identity, our endeavours and our desires. By leading with transparency, we avoid misinterpretation and generate a respect for difference. Together we build a safe environment where expression is free and full.

The small school for big dreams

Accomplishing big dreams begins with envisioning the first step towards them. By picturing the future, you can prepare for it, and slowly pave a path ahead. This is the core principle of the academic and interpersonal activities at the International School Groningen. We dream big, aim high, and bring along our friends.
