Book a Trial DayDiploma Programme
International High School
At ISB, students follow an internationally focused secondary education in English that leads to the IB Diploma Programme (DP).
The programme is designed to prepare students for further study, independent learning and life in an international environment. Alongside strong academic knowledge, students develop critical thinking, research, communication, collaboration and self-management skills.
Small class sizes allow teachers to know students well, respond to individual needs and provide regular, meaningful feedback throughout their learning journey.
What does the admission process look like?
Learning in English
English is the main language of learning and communication across the school, with the exception of language-specific subjects such as Czech and Spanish.
Students use English naturally throughout the day – in lessons, discussions, research, presentations and everyday school life. This helps them develop both confidence and the academic language needed for successful study in the IB Diploma Programme and beyond.
An Internationally Recognised IB Programme
The final two years of high school are taught through the IB Diploma Programme, a rigorous and internationally recognised qualification for students aged 16–19.
The DP combines subject knowledge with the development of broader academic and personal skills. Students choose subjects according to their interests, strengths and future study plans and complete the three core elements of the programme:
- Theory of Knowledge (TOK)
- Extended Essay (EE)
- Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS)
IB Diploma results are recognised by universities around the world, including in the Czech Republic, and are widely used as part of university admissions.
Learning Beyond Memorisation
Learning at ISB is not based simply on memorising information. Students are encouraged to question, analyse, compare perspectives, evaluate sources and apply their knowledge in new situations.
Teachers guide students through discussion, inquiry, research, problem-solving and reflection so that learning is meaningful and connected to the wider world.

Applications Throughout the Year
Because ISB is an international school, students may join us at different points during the academic year, depending on availability and their previous educational background.
The admission process is designed to help us understand the student as an individual and to determine how we can best support their transition into the school.
Students meet with members of the ISB team for a conversation about their interests, previous learning, strengths, goals and expectations. The process also includes diagnostic assessment in relevant academic areas.
The purpose of this assessment is not simply to test what a student already knows. It helps us build a clearer understanding of their academic readiness, learning needs and potential, so that we can provide appropriate support from the beginning.
During the admission process, new students meet with ISB staff to have a short conversation that allows us to get to know the student better, as an individual (hobbies, favourite subjects, goals for the future, questions about starting a new school, etc.). The second part involves some diagnostic testing and assessments. The purpose of this assessment is not to determine whether students are registered at ISB, but to get a complex understanding of the academic potential and needs of the student.
