World-Class, International Education

The SABIS^® Educational System is an international academic program that has been developed and refined over a 135-year period.

Proven Track Record of Academic Excellence

ISC-Muscat students have an advantage because they are equipped with a strong base that helps them achieve excellent examination results, well-developed inter-personal skills, and a track record of active engagement in their school and community, which is highly recognized when they apply to the universities of their choice.

Year after year, SABIS^® students gain access to universities around the world and secure acceptances and scholarships to some of the most prestigious ones.

On Campus & Online Learning Opportunities

Despite the current pandemic and subsequent disruption, and regardless of their physical location, ISC-Muscat students are continuing their education without missing a beat. As a result of the highly developed E-learning solutions available at the school, a structured and systematic approach to education, and well-honed learning habits, SABIS^® students have adapted rapidly to a changing world, and the learning has never stopped.

In the classroom and at home, our students are benefitting from technologies developed by SABIS^® that allow them access to a wealth of online learning tools. This hybrid approach to teaching ensures that students are getting the most out of the learning experience and are still receiving a top-quality education they signed-up for.

Engaging Sports, Activities, and Student Life

At ISC-Muscat, education extends beyond academics to encompass emotional and social intelligence as well. At school, students can enjoy a wide range of extra-curricular activities that allow them to develop talents, interests, and hobbies. Extensive sports facilities give students the space they need to discover their athletic capabilities in football, basketball, swimming, track and field, and more. While the state-of-the-art school theater is also the perfect place to nurture students’ musical, theater, dance, and public speaking talent.

Students can also opt to be part of the SABIS^® Student Life Organization (SLO), an integral part of their school life and a pillar of our educational system. The SLO offers countless opportunities for students to engage in meaningful, community-based projects that help them develop a strong sense of compassion and community conscientiousness. It also is the ideal environment for developing valuable 21^st century skills that are critical to future success, such as collaboration, creativity, problem solving, independence, accountability, and leadership.
