ISHCMC - The first International School in Ho Chi Minh City

At ISHCMC, student support builds on the principles of inclusion and differentiation, believing this mindset should be applied to students across the whole learning spectrum.

The ISHCMC learning approach engages and empowers learners by valuing their role in meaning creation and encouraging them to actively participate in their learning rather than simply receiving information.

All ISHCMC teachers are certified to teach the International Baccalaureate PYP/MYP/DP curriculum, and many continue to learn more about the IB in order to be better teachers for others.

ISHCMC Alumni Clariss

Beyond academic excellence, ISHCMC taught me to appreciate the uniqueness of each individual and the importance of collaboration in a global community. These lessons have been invaluable in my personal and professional life, enabling me to connect with people across different cultures effortlessly.

Clariss

I love the people at ISHCMC. I enjoy the many different nationalities, it is the best part of attending an international school. Before I came to IS HCMC, I used to go to a local Korean school, which is a totally different education system. The IB programme provides the opportunity to learn in different ways. Also it encourages students to have various points of view.

The first time my Husband and I landed in HCMC I couldn’t believe there were so many mopeds! It’s an eclectic city with something new to see and explore every day. HCMC is a vibrant city with a mix of traditional and modern as well as chaos and the calm, and this balance is something that has made me love living in HCMC more every day.
