Since then the school has broadened its scope to offer a full curriculum for children between three and 18 years old.The school has grown and developed over the years and is now one of just a small group of IB Word Schools offering the full International Baccalaureate programme. The school was formed upon a set of principles that the founders believed should underpin any school designed for the modern age. These included values such as freedom, internationalism, democracy, respect and the rule of law and they are still part of the ICS philosophy today.
