Types Of International Schools

With a variety of international schools across the globe there follows a dynamic curriculum in each of these designed to service the various expatriate constituencies. International schools are schools which educate the children between the ages of 2 to 18 which operate out of but with the consent of the state school system in a foreign country. The Noida International School amongst others uses the curriculum and the language of instruction which is different from that of the host country.
International schools are broadly divided into three categories which include:

Original Expatriate International Schools

This is one of the most common types of International schools which a majority of people envision. It is a school with Canadian curriculum and Canadian teachers. These schools unlike institutes like day care school in Noida are mono-nationalistic in nature and so the staff, school and curriculum all represent a single country, irrespective of its location. In the past when not many institutes would set up an educational program, this was the only known type of the international school. However with globalisation these are the smallest proportion of international schools which are available.

Being first in the origin these schools are often well-established and popular, thus pointing to the fact that these are generally hard on the pockets which in turn offer great employment packages to teachers that are in upper quartile.

Broadly International Schools

Primarily these exists in areas where resides a wide range of expatriates. Schools like Noida International School around which lives a mix of thousands of expats from around the globe offer the perfect ground for Broadly International Schools.

These schools cater to the needs of several parents and children from multiple nationalities and to assist further these schools make available the teachers with a multi-cultural background. Although following a standardized curriculum, they have room for modifications to accommodate the multi-ethnic requirements.

Middle school: middle school covers children from 10 to 14years. At this particular age, students take in keen interest in subjects like history, literature, maths, depending on individual’s preference. So posters, charts and models can be put up and the good part is that you can ask your students to lend a helping hand, be it in boarding school or a regular one.


High school: well, by this time, you won’t really have to think much and the most of the work can be handled by students. Of course, there’s no need to play much with colours, even if simple stuff is exhibited, it would be good to go with. At the end of the day, it makes more sense to have informative stuff rather for the high school students rather than restricting to decoration part only.
