The School
This is a not-for-profit, co-educational international school in South Korea. Having grown from a successful Primary foundation, the school expanded its Middle Years (IMYC) and launched IGCSE and A-Level programs in 2018 and 2019, respectively.
We are a truly global community with students from all over the world. While our facilities are designed for up to 540 students, current shipping industry shifts mean we currently serve approximately 170 students, allowing for small class sizes and personalized instruction. Our campus features 27 classrooms, science labs, maker spaces, a gymnasium, a rooftop garden, and extensive outdoor sports facilities.
