Award Description:

The British Council offers the International School Award (ISA) as an accreditation framework for schools to record and evaluate their international work and embed it into the curriculum. 

ISA acts as a benchmark that ascertains schools as having an outstanding level of support for 

a) nurturing global citizenship in young people

b) enriching teaching and learning

The ISA approach to school development is holistic and mirrors the curriculum-based project work approach to encourage the teachers to use with their students. It is a rigorous and evidence-based process. ISA is a yearly award given to participating schools.

This award is endorsed by the Department of Education in Nepal since June 2012.

Importance of International School Award:

The International School Award provides a supportive and motivational framework to guide international learning activities and helps gain recognition for ongoing international work. It can support schools at any stage of their international journey and can be adapted to any curriculum.

Applications from interested schools are called in every year and schools were selected on the basis of their application.
