Rapid changes characterize contemporary educational practice and management, because of: diversity in student population; easily available educational technology that enhances teaching and learning; plurality of standardized tests; more knowledge about brain function through research in cognitive psychology; and very high expectations from all stakeholder to cultivate learners that can operate effectively in the 21st Century. These are very complex and highly challenging issues for the educational administrator. It is incumbent on us to build the capacities that can incorporate and sustain change. We are happy that we have lived up to the above challenges at JIS by improving upon our school facilities, which are creditable complements to the effective execution of our educational programs. They have been designed to make room for expanded use and upgrade in quality. These have taken place over the years to cater for increased and intensive use, in line with our school improvement protocol.

Our goals are clearly articulated in several documents, including particularly, the School Improvement and Strategic plans; various aspects of which form the framework for operations. We also value the useful guides of our accreditation agencies and scrupulously follow them to achieve our set objectives. From the schools experience, collaboration and cooperation have been achieved through the use of the acronym "TEAM" - Together Everyone Achieves More.

En tant qu’enseignante à Jis et parents,je peux témoigner de l’excellence de cette école. Le niveau académique est très solide et les programmes sont bien structurés, tout en respectant le rythme et le développement des élèves. Les enseignants sont professionnels, engagés et attentifs, et la collaboration entre les équipes est remarquable. Du côté administratif, la communication avec les familles est claire et efficace, et l’encadrement des élèves est bienveillant tout en restant exigeant. JIS réussit à allier exigence académique, soutien personnalisé et ouverture internationale. C’est un établissement dans lequel je suis fière de travailler et où mes enfants s’épanouissent pleinement.
