Any university in the world is a real opportunity for our graduates
Secondary and senior school are the time for a conscious choice of the future. At CIS, we create an environment where students develop leadership qualities and prepare for admission to leading universities around the world.
The programme helps a child to:
Students follow two programmes in parallel: Cambridge international and national
The safety and wellbeing of every child is our priority
More than 30 different clubs are organised at school
We develop the core skills of every student
The programme is designed to develop academic literacy and confident command of English as a tool for learning. Students analyse literary and informational texts, master different writing styles, learn to argue, interpret, and express complex ideas orally and in writing. They develop critical reading, structured writing, and public speaking skills. This forms the foundation for successful learning across all Cambridge subjects and a further transition to IGCSE and A-level.
The programme deepens mathematical thinking through the systematic study of algebra, geometry, numbers, probability, and data analysis. Students not only solve problems but also explain methods, prove statements, and use mathematical models to describe real situations. Special emphasis is placed on logic, generalisation, abstract thinking, and the ability to apply mathematics in new and unfamiliar contexts.
The programme builds scientific understanding of the world and prepares students for subject-based study of science at IGCSE and A-level. Learning is structured around scientific concepts, patterns, and relationships, as well as the development of research skills.
Programme structure:
The programme develops visual thinking and conscious creative practice. Students explore ideas, concepts, and cultural contexts, experiment with materials and techniques, analyse their own work and the work of others. The emphasis is on developing an individual artistic voice, reflection, and the ability to justify creative decisions.
The programme is aimed at developing musical thinking and analytical skills. Students work in three interconnected areas: creating, performing, and analysing music. They study musical structures, genres, and styles from different cultures and eras, developing an understanding of music as a form of communication and cultural expression.
The programme develops computational thinking and an understanding of how digital systems work. Students study algorithms, programming, data representation, computer logic, and digital safety. Learning is practice-oriented and prepares students for further study in computer science and technology.
The programme develops research and global thinking. Students study contemporary global topics, analyse different points of view, work with sources, and build a reasoned position. Particular attention is given to research skills, collaboration, critical analysis of information, and awareness of one's role in the global world.
The programme supports the personal and social development of adolescents during a period of active change. Students reflect on wellbeing, relationships, responsibility, and decision-making. Learning is based on discussion, case analysis, and the development of self-regulation, conscious choice, and safe behaviour in society.
The programme helps students understand how learning in an international school is structured and what matters for university admission. Students get acquainted with the IGCSE and A Level system, university requirements, and learn to choose subjects based on their interests and future goals. The programme shows the connection between today's studies and tomorrow's opportunities.
What this gives the student:
IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) is a two-year programme for students aged 14-16, designed to support early academic specialisation. At CIS, students typically study 6-8 subjects, including English, Mathematics, Science and electives. At the end of the programme, students sit international examinations.
Benefits of IGCSE:
A Level (Advanced Level) is a two-year programme for students aged 16–18, focused on university preparation. Students choose 3-4 specialised subjects aligned with their intended degree. Study is in depth and requires independence, analytical thinking and practical application.
Benefits of A-Level:
The A-Level programme provides not only comprehensive preparation for university admissions but also develops the competitive skills required in the 21st century. Programme structure:
Together, these elements form a comprehensive academic portfolio considered by universities alongside examination results.

International Teacher, History
I chose my profession because I wanted to find job satisfaction by helping others. I try to inspire my students by showing them how the subject is connected to the city around them: St Petersburg - and the country as a whole. This city is steeped in history, so it's an easy job. I find a common language by showing them I understand their frames of reference: youth/internet culture, and their sense of humour.
International Teacher, English language and Geography
I chose teaching because language connects people and ideas, and I wanted to help students find their voice. I aim to inspire students by showing English as a tool for expression, creativity, and making sense of the world through texts, writing, and discussion. I build a common language through respect and genuine interest in their perspectives, creating a classroom where students feel safe to question, collaborate, and grow.
International Teacher, Mathematics and Science
My greatest strength is my patience - I try not to put pressure on my students, rather give them the time and support that they need to succeed. Luckily, I share many interests with the students and am able to relate with them easily.
International Teacher, English Language and Literature
I see the classroom as a canvas for creation. I teach meaningful, content-driven lessons that utilise literature, poetry, and music. I encourage students to experience language as a bridge to global cultures, cultivating empathy, and self-expression.
International Teacher, Mathematics
Since I was a school student I have been fascinated with mathematics and its beauty in order of things. My grandmother was a Mathematics teacher at school, and she spent a lot of time with me, sharing her passion to the subject and to the profession. I try to do the same with my students. I'm a very excited when students enjoy achieving their goals in my subject.

My two children attend this excellent school. We've never had a better one. Before this, we attended the President School, but no other school in Moscow or the Moscow region can compare. The teaching staff is exceptional, with an individualized approach to each child. Small classes. I especially want to emphasize balanced nutrition. I recommend it to everyone, and a huge thank you to the principal and all the teachers.

Excellent international school. It implements two educational programs ( Cambridge + Russian). The low occupancy rate of classes allows each student to develop.
24 November 2024
An excellent school with a personalized approach to each child. They offer extracurricular activities (coding and other) outside of school hours, which eliminates the need for children to constantly move between institutions.

The school is wonderful. The teachers are very good and kind. Everything is top-notch. We're in our second year there and we don't regret it at all. It's worth the money.
17 March 2023
An excellent school with wonderful teachers and staff. They pay close attention to each child. They help them settle in, help them discover their talents, teach them how to study, and if there are any gaps in their knowledge, they help fill them. The child is very interested and comfortable in learning. There are various clubs for children, sports and cultural events, open lessons and days, and the school is filled with a huge number of interesting events. There is definitely no routine here. The Cambridge curriculum goes hand in hand with the Russian one, and this is very important, as the child has more opportunities. We really like the Moscow campus.
21 February 2023
We carefully selected a school for our youngest daughter because we were moving to Moscow. We looked at several Moscow schools in the same program, and when we came for an interview at the Festivalnaya campus, we immediately fell in love and were never disappointed. This school turned out to be a true family for us! Caring, welcoming, friendly, and caring about each student as if they were our own! The atmosphere is friendly and positive! It's a shame this campus only runs through Year 9. In Year 10, we transferred to a different campus, and they actively helped us choose the right one, offered advice, and were fully involved in the process. They don't abandon their students here and support them at every stage. We are very grateful to the school for everything! To the entire staff!
12 December 2022
An excellent school with a cozy and pleasant atmosphere, the children (students) enjoy attending. The teachers are wonderful: very attentive, friendly, and responsible. The children quickly integrate into the school atmosphere, and communication and interaction between classes is well-organized. We've been attending the school since he was three years old. Our child is happy.
19 July 2022
For our family, the school environment and our relationship with our children are key! We constantly work with our children at home and check their homework. We can't do without it in the early stages. The school provides resources and a lively foreign language, and we simply support them. But being there for our children when they're stressed out at school, offering advice, a hug, or comfort—we can't help but love them. The teachers and staff do a tremendous job! They cultivate their curiosity and motivate them to learn every day. Isn't that wonderful, my friends? I know every day what my children have been doing and how successful they are. We feel like we're part of a big, close-knit family here! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
25 May 2020
We went to school on the recommendation of friends. We transferred from another school due to my husband's job change. We studied in person until March, then switched to online learning due to the quarantine. Our child has been attending happily all year, and there were no difficulties convincing him to go. The teachers are very attentive. The learning process is well-structured, and most importantly, there is always the opportunity to talk with the teacher and the principal. Special thanks for the community atmosphere – they explain everything and offer helpful tips. There is a lot of English, but I want to learn more.
02 April 2020
The school teaches in English! The teachers are English! They work wonderfully with the children! Lots of extracurricular activities for a well-rounded education!

I joined CIS after Year 9 when I realized I wanted to study abroad. At the same time, I knew my English was not yet strong enough. It was important for me to study at an international school where I could improve my language skills and adapt to a new system. I considered different schools, but CIS suited me best. Here you can study two programs at once - international and Russian. That was important not only to me but also to my parents: they wanted me to keep the knowledge I gained over nine years in a Russian school.

Skolkovo Campus
My curiosity helps me a lot, and it grew thanks to the teachers at CIS. Even in primary school, in Science lessons we did not just learn theory - we explored how things work: we studied volcanoes and the human body and did experiments. History was exciting too - we built Egyptian pyramids from sugar cubes, the Great Wall of China from cardboard cards, and Viking houses from wine corks. It was not only useful, but also a lot of fun.
Year 11 student
Skolkovo Campus
I want to study biomedical engineering - to create technologies that help people with disabilities live fuller lives. School has helped me prepare for this path. A big advantage at CIS is the two programs, which approach the same subjects in different ways and complement each other. For example, in the international physics course we focused on understanding why phenomena happen. In the Russian program we worked with formulas and problem solving. A good example is heat transfer: in international lessons we explored convection, conduction, and radiation in depth, while in Russian lessons we calculated how much thermal energy an object can gain or lose. Together this built a complete picture that really helps in further study.
