Council of International Schools
The Council of International Schools is the premier organization in International Education for the accreditation of schools and Best Practice development. CIS is a not-for-profit organization of a truly worldwide international educational community comprising over 500 member schools and 400 colleges/universities. It has experience of K-12 education in more than 100 countries and many of the Council's Officers and Consultants are former heads of international schools.
The central purpose of CIS is to enable member organizations to achieve and deliver the highest standards in International Education and continually improve the outcome of student learning.
Schools are eligible to apply for membership, provided that they meet the three Membership Criteria and the twenty Membership Standards. The Council encourages applicant schools to look at these Criteria and Standards carefully before applying, in the knowledge that they will be monitored by the membership Visitor when evaluating the school.
Kazakhstan International School has provisional membership of CIS since November 2007. KIS will have its first preliminary visit from CIS in the last week of October. Mr. Andrew Hill from the CIS will visit our school; will train our teachers to proceed with standard and practices of CIS. He will evaluate KIS on the Standards and Practices prescribed by the CIS Organization.
The school has appointed Mrs. Benu Sondhi as CIS Coordinator, to work with the KIS community (teachers, students and parents) and get accreditation for the school. Please help us in making Kazakhstan International School as the very best school in Central Asia. Parents willing to help us with CIS accreditations please contact our CIS Coordinator Mrs. Benu Sondhi / the Principal Mrs. Kapila Arora.
