Requirements

Admission requirements

Every student is considered as a whole.

Admission requirements vary based on age, previous schooling, and language level. ISB welcomes students from different educational backgrounds, valuing diversity as a resource.

The evaluation considers the student’s overall profile: academic development, language skills, emotional maturity, and the ability to thrive in an international environment.

A structured but flexible pathway, centered on the student.

The admissions process at ISB is designed to understand the student’s profile, previous pathway, and educational needs. It is not a competitive selection, but a moment of mutual understanding.

Each step is supported by the school team, who guide the family with clear information, dedicated meetings, and precise answers to every question.

The International School of Brindisi (ISB) adopts a transparent tuition structure designed to ensure sustainable access to a high-quality international education while maintaining the school’s financial strength. Two tuition types are available: Self-Payer tuition, for families who independently cover the cost of education (for Grades 9-12, please contact the Admissions Office directly), and Corporate & Sponsored tuition, for students whose schooling is funded by companies, international organizations, or diplomatic entities. This distinction helps balance support for international realities with the goal of maintaining a diverse school community that includes local families and students from different backgrounds. Sponsored tuition contributes to additional resources, programs, and infrastructure that enrich the educational experience for all students, while self-payer tuition is designed to promote broader and more sustainable access, fostering a truly international and inclusive environment.
