Founder Welcome

Welcome to MYIS International School!

When I founded Magic Years in 1990, my dream was to create a school where every child would feel known, valued, and inspired to reach their fullest potential. More than three decades later, that vision continues to guide everything we do.

Today, MYIS has grown into a thriving international school serving students from 1 to 17 years of age, offering a continuous educational journey from our nurturing Early Years programme through Primary, Middle School, and High School.

As an IB World School authorized to offer both the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and the Middle Years Programme (MYP), and as a Council of International Schools (CIS) Accredited School, we are proud to provide an internationally recognized education that combines academic excellence with the development of character, compassion, and global citizenship.

Our reputation was built on excellence in Early Childhood Education, and this remains at the heart of who we are. The first years of life are extraordinary. During this period, children develop rapidly through meaningful experiences, relationships, and play. We believe that every child deserves a joyful, stimulating, and caring environment where curiosity is encouraged, confidence is nurtured, and a lifelong love of learning begins.

As children grow, our programme evolves with them. Guided by the IB philosophy, students are challenged to think critically, inquire deeply, collaborate meaningfully, and become compassionate, responsible members of a global community. We are committed to educating the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, physically, morally, and spiritually—preparing them not only for university but for life.

One of MYIS’s greatest strengths is our warm and supportive community. We believe that education is most successful when schools and families work together in genuine partnership. The trust and collaboration we share with our parents have been fundamental to our growth and to the success of generations of MYIS students.

While education continues to evolve, our core values remain unchanged. Every decision we make is guided by a simple belief: every child deserves to be seen, challenged, supported, and loved.

Whether you are exploring schools for your young child or seeking an exceptional educational pathway through the teenage years, we warmly invite you to discover what makes MYIS such a special place.

I look forward to welcoming your family to our community.
