Our Philosophy
TIS provides a family environment and is Africa's best-kept secret. Our vision: be an international school of choice producing world-class citizens. At our core are four pillars: Academics, Culture, Sports, and Service. Our diverse student and staff population fosters a cross-cultural community shaping globally-minded citizens. Students are very focused on successful IB results to gain admission to their college or university of choice. Our facilities cater for scientists, musicians, artists, sports stars, computer scientists and academics. Our acclaimed service-learning programs (Liter of Light Ghana, CureAid) ensure the balance students require to become outstanding - the TIS Difference. The TIS DP graduate is an articulate leader who is intelligent, balanced, independent and committed to service and lifelong learning.
