Hanoi International School (HIS)
Hanoi International School (HIS) is a long-standing institution in the city's educational landscape, having been established in 1996. It was founded as a joint venture between an international partner and the Hanoi Department of Education. HIS is a fully accredited IB World School, offering the Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme, and the Diploma Programme.
The school's philosophy centers on providing a nurturing and student-centered environment. With a smaller student body compared to some of the larger international schools in Hanoi, HIS is known for its close-knit community and the individual attention students receive. It prides itself on its diversity, with over 30 nationalities represented in its student population.
Located centrally on Lieu Giai Street, HIS provides easy access for families living in the city center. While its campus is more compact than those in suburban districts, it is equipped with specialized facilities for science, art, and sport. The school is highly regarded for its inclusive admissions policy and its focus on developing balanced, lifelong learners.
