United Nations International School of Hanoi (UNIS Hanoi)

Established in 1988 through a partnership between the United Nations and the Vietnamese government, UNIS Hanoi is a non-profit, co-educational day school. It serves the children of UN employees, diplomats, and expatriate families, as well as local Vietnamese students. The school was a pioneer in the region, being the first in Asia to offer all three International Baccalaureate programs.

The school's philosophy is deeply rooted in the values of the United Nations, emphasizing social responsibility, sustainability, and international-mindedness. The curriculum is exclusively IB, providing a rigorous academic framework that prepares students for global citizenship. UNIS is widely regarded as the most prestigious international school in Hanoi due to its unique history, diverse student body representing over 60 nationalities, and its status as a non-profit institution where revenue is reinvested into the school's facilities and programs.

Located in the Ciputra residential area, the campus features state-of-the-art facilities, including professional-grade performing arts spaces, extensive sports fields, and specialized science hubs. It is highly selective and often has significant waiting lists for many grade levels.
