Student Experience
- Students should discover what you learn from doing.
- We provide opportunities for our students to contribute, to collaborate and to learn that they can make a difference.
- Students have access to the unique learning that comes from a strong programme of service to others.
International School of Paris, Strategic Plan, Guiding Statement 7

The student experience at ISP should allow the expression and cultivation of the multiplicity of talents and interests of each individual, recognising that this will involve a range of activities that extend well beyond the formal curriculum. Wherever possible students should be encouraged to create, lead and participate having the confidence to know that they can make a difference.
