Academics

Adelaide International School (AIS) offers a rich and flexible curriculum designed to meet the needs of both local and international students. The school provides multiple senior pathways, allowing students to choose programs that best suit their goals and interests.
Cambridge International Curriculum – AIS offers the Cambridge IGCSE for Year 10 students, providing a global foundation that develops collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Students can earn 20 SACE credits for each IGCSE subject, accelerating their progress toward the South Australian Certificate of Education. In 2026, AIS expands its offerings with the Cambridge A-Level program, giving Year 11 and 12 students a rigorous academic route recognised by leading universities worldwide.
South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE) – AIS delivers both Stage 1 and Stage 2 SACE, combining academic depth with flexibility. Students can study a mix of semester and year-long courses, and may use recognised learning such as music grades, community work, or VET achievements for SACE credits. SACE students graduate confident, capable, and ready to thrive in university, vocational pathways, or the workforce.
Vocational Education and Training (VET) – In partnership with the Adelaide Education Group, AIS offers Certificate II, III, and IV programs. VET courses provide hands-on, practical learning in areas like business, health, and technology, enabling students to gain workplace skills and even use VET results toward their ATAR calculation.
These programs are taught by registered TESOL and subject specialists using content-based and text-based learning approaches aligned with the Australian Curriculum. EAP students can earn up to 40 Stage 1 SACE credits, preparing them to transition confidently into mainstream academic studies.
Together, these programs create an educational journey that connects global standards with local opportunity—helping students at AIS build strong academic foundations, transferable skills, and a genuine love for learning.
