Academic Goals

Emphasizing a well-balanced body of knowledge, skills, and experiences, the curriculum at ISC-Erbil specifies daily learning goals at all grade levels. In an atmosphere that fosters the development of a lifelong love of learning, students are shown how to study and given the support they need to develop a solid academic foundation.

Starting at Grade 4, our courses specify a minimum number of "units of information" that students need to learn. This minimum includes the simple concepts tested by the AMS, as well as Basic Questions which test the material that "everyone should know." In addition to this, ISC-Erbil courses include extended material for more able students. Details can be provided to interested parents.

The coherence of the SABIS^® syllabi allows our students to achieve more with less effort. Each year, graduates from SABIS^® schools around the world gain entry to highly competitive universities in the UK, U.S.A., Canada, Europe, Australia and the Middle and Far East (Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, MIT, Princeton, Stanford, etc.). SABIS^® schools pride themselves on the performance of their students at the most prestigious universities in the world.
