What International School of Nice offers English speakers in Nice
International School of Nice (ISN) has been running for more than 45 years, making it the longest-established private English-language school inside the city itself. It draws students from over 65 nationalities and takes children from age 3 through to 18, so a family can enrol once and stay through to university entry rather than switching schools partway.
The school runs the full International Baccalaureate (IB) pathway: the Primary Years Programme, the Middle Years Programme, and the IB Diploma at sixth form, alongside IGCSEs for older students. Instruction is in English throughout, with daily French classes so children keep building the local language without losing academic pace in their first one. ISN is part of the Globeducate group, which also runs Mougins British International School and ICS Côte d'Azur, giving continuity for families who relocate within the region. For English-speaking families who want a proven, internationally recognised curriculum without leaving Nice, it remains the main in-city option.
