The International Schools Group (ISG) was founded in 1962 to serve the needs of expatriate families living and working in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. ISG is a not-for-profit, forward-looking school district comprised of five schools. The schools are co-educational day schools delivering preschool to grade 12 programs for expatriate children and a small number of students from the host country. Each school offers either a British, American or International curriculum, and encompasses the following higher level programs: AP and IB (selected American schools), and IGCSE and A Levels within British School Dhahran. ISG currently serves the needs of over 3,200 students.
The District is governed by a Board of Trustees, supported by school councils, and is licensed by the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Education. The Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools accredit ISG’s American and International curriculum schools.
