With possibly the most convenient location in
Thao Dien, the European International School Ho Chi Minh City is the only
boutique international school, set in lush garden surroundings, offering the
International Baccalaureate (IB) continuum of studies for children aged 2-18.
Our vibrant, unified campus is a place where
students, teachers and parents of all grade levels and different backgrounds
interact freely with each other within a home-from-home, tranquil village
atmosphere. EIS offers a truly diverse ‘melting pot’ of 40+ nationalities and
global cultures, where students are encouraged to find their unique voice, to
pursue languages, and to contribute to all aspects of school life.
Our passionate EIS teachers, with over 13
years’ average experience, are well-practiced in individualised learning
methods. With a very low student-to-teacher ratio, particularly in the
middle-high school sections of the school, students benefit directly from more
frequent access to teachers.
Graduating IB Diploma students consistently
achieve well-above the world averages, and have achieved acceptances into
prestigious universities worldwide, often with significant merit-based
scholarships. For the first time, all of our Class of 2020 achieved the IB
Diploma, with 85% obtaining the challenging bilingual diploma.
EIS provides an outstanding world-class
education for students, evidenced by our full accreditation status with the
Council of International Schools (CIS), while also providing outstanding value
for money.
Being a medium-sized school, we are large
enough to offer a wide range of educational opportunities, while also being
intimate enough to provide the unique personal attention and care that each
child deserves.
