Τhe School

It provides an International Nursery, Kindergarten and Elementary school programme for children of Greek and foreign nationals living in Athens and Piraeus.

Since the opening of the school, teachers and administrators have worked diligently and with enthusiasm to build a quality educational programme that stimulates learning, generates good learning habits and promotes positive attitudes. Our plan is to welcome children representing different countries.

We are eagerly looking forward to welcoming all new students and families to our community.

Home and school must have positive relationship and collaboration. We respect that home is the basis of where students learn their initial principles such as responsibility, manners, organization and respect. As a school we work to reinforce these principles. With your collaboration we believe we will be able to succeed.

The International School of Piraeus is an authorized IB school to offer the PYP programme. It is the first school in Piraeus offering the PYP and one of the first five in Greece. We are pleased to be pioneers in this field.

The International School of Piraeus was founded to facilitate the lives of Greek and international families in Piraeus and the south suburbs, by offering the reputable International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP). We offer a high quality education that stimulates lifelong learning, develops skills and globally relevant concepts, generates good learning habits and promotes positive attitudes.

Within this programme we offer a comprehensive, inquiry-based and student-centered approach to teaching and learning. We focus on the total growth of the developing child – intellectual, physical, emotional and social, which we monitor and scaffold with rigorous and holistic assessment.

Beyond intellectual rigour and high academic standards, strong emphasis is placed on the ideas of intercultural understanding and respect, responsible communication and citizenship, and cooperation with schools and institutions both in Greece and abroad in order to create a better and more peaceful world.

Our aim is to develop the individual talents of our students and to teach them to relate their school experiences to the realities of the outside world.
