Junior School

Welcome to the Junior School at the International School of Uganda. The Junior School provides the best in IB education for over 250 children from Early Childhood to Grade 5 (Ages 2.5 to 11).

With experienced, enthusiastic and supportive teaching staff ensuring all students have the opportunities to reach their potential and become successful learners.


Foundations of Learning

The Junior School is a place we’ve designed to nurture the natural curiosities, talents and abilities that each child brings to our community. Each day is designed to create learning experiences that empower children to learn how to learn.Teachers work closely with each learner to shape a learning experience that is driven by their natural curiosities and personal motivation.

This approach builds on students’ strengths and challenges them to grow.  It helps develop learners who are skilful, confident and equipped to solve problems and navigate change with resilience and success.


Learning How to Learn

Children are natural learners. Through the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB PYP), students learn through meaningful and authentic learning experiences using an inquiry-based, concept-driven transdisciplinary approach. 

Imagine a school where your child is embraced as competent, creative and caring. That is our school.

This framework provides a flexible, but thoughtful approach to developing a curriculum and learning pathways that nurture the skills needed to learn not only in school but in life.


Space to Learn

We have designed our classrooms into flexible learning spaces where children can present, collaborate, problems solve, discover, research and experiment.  These spaces make use of the indoor and outdoor spaces in sundrenched tropical gardens on the suburban hills of Kampala.

We welcome you to explore the ISU website. We look forward to meeting you and encourage you to come and visit us!
