“In a safe, caring and welcoming environment, our mission is to develop socially responsible, life long learners able to problem solve, think critically, and make positive changes in our global community”.TIS Mission Statement
At the International School of Macao (TIS) we provide many opportunities and support for students to explore and enhance their individuality and creativity in a truly international learning environment. Our range of academic and extra-curricular programmes allow boys and girls to nurture their emerging talents and prepare themselves for a future of learning and responsible citizenship.
TIS was established in 2002 to provide a Canadian curriculum and accreditation to local and expatriate students. English is the primary language of instruction. TIS opened with an initial total enrolment of 58 students on the campus of Macau University of Science and Technology. By 2006, the school had grown to over 500 students and moved into the first phase of its new, purpose-built facility on the MUST campus. It also became accredited with the Ministry of Education in Alberta, Canada.
