Welcome to the English
International School of Tunis
A world class education with a Tunisian heart.
At the English International School of Tunis, we believe that students will only be able to reach their potential if their learning takes place in a caring and positive educational environment. We are dedicated to a holistic approach to education and we place a real emphasis on student development and growth - academically, physically, emotionally and socially.
The Cambridge international curriculum sets a global standard for education, and is recognised by universities and employers worldwide. Our curriculum is flexible, challenging and inspiring, culturally sensitive yet international in approach. Cambridge students develop an informed curiosity and a lasting passion for learning. They also gain the essential skills they need for success at university and in their future careers.
