Saturday, 08 August 2009 09:28


The Elementary School uses the first curriculum developed for international primary schools. Now adopted by the IBO as their worldwide Primary Years Program, the curriculum leads to the MYP and IB programs. TIS is one of the only schools in the Uzbekistan authorized to use the IB curriculum from ages 6-12. Through both the curriculum and our teaching we aim to develop the intellectual, emotional and physical potential of each child in a secure and stimulating environment.
