Willkommen an der International School of Zürich North (ISZN)
An der International School of Zürich North verbinden wir den britischen Lehrplan mit einem wertschätzenden, internationalen Umfeld, das jede Schülerin und jeden Schüler dazu ermutigt, ihr oder sein Potenzial zu entfalten und hervorragende Leistungen zu erzielen. Vom zweisprachigen Early Years Programm bis zu den A-Levels lernen unsere Schülerinnen und Schüler kritisch zu denken, mit Respekt zu handeln und die Resilienz zu entwickeln, die sie an der Universität und im Leben stark macht.
Unser Schulleiter James Stenning freut sich, Sie an der ISZN zu begrüssen.
"Ich versuche sicherzustellen, das jedes Kind die Möglichkeit hat, in einer sich schnell verändernden Welt zu wachsen, erfolgreich zu sein"
- Herr James Stenning, Schulleiter

#ISZNInsights | Why the British Curriculum Matters in Zurich
Choosing the right curriculum is one of the most important decisions a family makes – especially in a city like Zurich, where plans can change and futures stay open.
In our latest blog, we share why the British Curriculum at ISZN works so well for both internationally mobile families and those planning to stay in Switzerland. From strong early foundations to globally recognised IGCSEs and A-Levels, the pathway offers clarity, confidence, and flexibility at every stage.
If you’re exploring curriculum options and want to understand what this pathway really offers – beyond labels – this read is for you.

#ISZNNews 🌍 Grade 8 at Youth Forum Switzerland
Our Grade 8 students recently took part in Youth Forum Switzerland, hosted at @iszlofficial. For many, it was their first experience of a large, student-led international forum—and a memorable one.
Over 1,000 students came together to explore global topics, exchange ideas, and connect with peers from around the world.
What made the experience stand out:
✨ Student-led learning – Students led discussions and workshops, and managed tech, presentations, and photography.
✨ Interactive workshops – Creative sessions and inspiring talks encouraged students to think, create, and take action.
✨ Global connections – Meaningful conversations with peers from Brazil, the USA, Hungary, India, Madagascar, and beyond.
Our students returned with new perspectives, growing confidence, and a clear message: small actions—starting a conversation, sharing an idea, trying something new—can lead to meaningful change.

#ISZNNews | 🏀 ISZN G6–8 Basketball Competes in Geneva
Our G6–8 Basketball team travelled to Geneva on 17–18 January to compete in the SGIS Basketball Category C Boys tournament.
With a young squad, our students knew the games would be challenging. They played with commitment, showed strong resilience and character, and enjoyed both the competition and the experience of travelling together as a team.
Thank you to our coaches and chaperones for their leadership and support throughout the trip.
Special thanks to Pierre Quilez and the team at @collegeduleman for hosting such a well-organised and welcoming tournament. 🙌

#ISZNNews Strengthening Digital Learning Together 🚀
During our latest Teacher INSET Day and as part of our ongoing professional development programme, we worked with Conall Mac Loingsigh, Digital Advisor at @CognitaSchools, to strengthen our use of Flint – Cognita’s digital learning and assessment platform.
The session supported staff in using Flint purposefully to enhance planning, teaching, feedback, and the tracking of pupil progress, helping build confidence and consistency across the school.
During his visit, Conall also delivered an engaging coding lesson with our Grade 4 and 5 students, modelling effective digital pedagogy and computational thinking, and met with teams across the school to discuss digital priorities and next steps.
