Moshi campus has 200 students, including 60 boarders, and offers a full range of courses from pre-kindergarten to International Baccalaureate Diploma. Arusha campus has 250 day students, and offers courses from pre-kindergarten to grade 10 and IGCSE.
Both campuses are on spacious sites on the edge of town and include libraries, computer suites, laboratories, art rooms, music rooms and a full range of sports facilities. The boarding facilities in Moshi are small purpose-built units, in which students share study-bedrooms. Each unit in the charge of a professional boarding parent, and there is a special house for younger children which operates round a family theme.
Grades K-9 follow the International Baccalaureate Primary years programme(PYP) and Middle Years programme (MYP) curriculum with an African and international perspective; grade 10 follows IGCSE courses and the grade 11-12 International Baccalaureate Diploma programme was the first in Africa. Most IB diploma students go on to UK or US universities and in the past three years IB diploma graduates have gained admittance to over 30 universities across the world, including Harvard and Cambridge.
Both campuses offer assistance with special educational needs and ESL/EFL. For all students there is a strong emphasis on community service and links with the local community. The school makes maximum use of its incomparable environment, with a carefully structured outdoor pursuits programme, as well as a field studies centre on the coast at Pangani.
Good academic standards are advised for entry to the rigorous IB diploma programme but elsewhere admission depends on space being available. Early application is advised.
ISM also operates an extensive GoKili! Visiting Schools Programme for school groups elsewhere in the world who wish to visit East Africa, engage in meaningful community service, and explore the superb environment in which we live. Details are at http://www.ismoshi.org/gokili
