The Curriculum
Southbank International School is an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School for 3-18 year olds with campuses in Hampstead, Kensington and Westminster in Central London. It was the first school in the UK to be authorised to offer all three IB programmes – the Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma Programmes.
Games & the Arts
Southbank has a challenging visual art, music and drama programme that is implemented through a variety of classroom and specialist instructors.
Pastoral Care
We believe that if a student is happy they are much more likely to be successful in everything they do. As a result, we make sure all our students receive tailored care and guidance throughout their time at Southbank so they can flourish both academically and socially.
Scholarships
Each year Southbank awards a scholarship to one Grade 11 pupil.
Head Teacher’s Philosophy
For more than 30 years, Southbank has stood at the forefront of providing a world-class education to children and young people from London’s international community and the UK itself.
At the heart of the school are the programmes of the International Baccalaureate. These are challenging curricula that have been carefully developed to encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.
Enter one of our classrooms and I am sure you’ll be impressed by the enthusiasm, confidence and creativity of our students.
Outstanding Characteristics
We are an IB school that prides itself on the cultivation and nurturing of an ethos and spirit rooted in the school’s foundation and history, as well as the philosophy of the IB.
