Overview
Established in 1979, Southbank International School is a friendly, vibrant school that’s focused on academic excellence and developing students who make a positive difference to the world. We do this by providing a dynamic and exciting International Baccalaureate education for a wide range of 2 to 18-year-olds, who currently come from over 70 countries.We also place great importance on opening the eyes and minds of our students to the world and all it offers. This includes venturing outside the classroom as much as possible to enjoy and learn from London’s unrivalled cultural and historic resources.
As a result, we produce unique young people who think independently, engage confidently with others, and want to give back to communities on a local, national and global level. We believe this gives our students an excellent platform to go on to a world-leading university and succeed in all aspects of their adult life.

Academics
The International Baccalaureate (IB) was founded as a progressive non-profit educational foundation in 1968. Initially, it developed a Diploma Programme to help children aged 16 to 18 acquire the necessary skills and knowledge to live, learn and work in a rapidly globalising world.
By 1994, the IB had introduced its Middle Years Programme for students aged between 11 and 16. It then added the Primary Years Programme for children aged 3 to 11 in 1997; and in 2012, it launched its Career-related Programme for students between the ages of 16 to 19.
Today, the IB works with over 4,000 schools in 148 countries and offers its four programmes to over one million students. At Southbank, we’re delighted to be one of these schools. Every year, we see how the IB programmes help to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people.
We also share the International Baccalaureate’s overall aim to create a better and more peaceful world through the understanding and respect of different nationalities and cultures.
