Mission & Vision
At The English International School Baghdad, we take our responsibility to prepare future leaders and lifelong learners seriously. The acquisition of fundamental values lies at the heart of everything we do, and all areas of the curriculum are a vehicle for underpinning these values. EISB aims to expose every child, every day, to experiences that will help them understand the need for mutual respect, tolerance, and understanding of people from different cultures and faiths. We pride ourselves on our success in this area as we will see our students embrace differences with respect and integrity.
To achieve our mission and vision, the EIS-Baghdad team will:
- Maintain a school culture of excellence in teaching, student achievement, and innovation.
- Maintain a supportive, healthy, and secure environment for teaching and learning.
- Through the Fieldwork Education curriculums, our team delivers a balanced and holistic international education centered on the learner.
- Raise student awareness and engagement in social, environmental, and inter-cultural activities, both within and outside the academic programs of study.
