Dushanbe International School is a joint venture between the Shelale Educational Corporation and Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Tajikistan. Established in 1997, it is a co-educational English day school founded especially for the children of the foreign missions, international organizations, and embassies. Interested local students are also most welcome to study here.
There are three sections in our school: Kindergarten, Primary and Secondary. In Kindergarten, we have two different age groups: 4-5 years old and 5-6 years old. In the Primary Section, there are classes 1 through 6, and in the Secondary Section we have classes 7 through 11. At present, there are about 438 students enrolled in our school.
Our school is a regular member of the ECIS (European Council of International Schools) and CIS (Council of International Schools). Being a Cambridge International Centre, our school uses Cambridge International Primary Programme for Classes 1-6, Cambridge Lower Secondary Programme for Classes 7-8, International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) for Classes 9-10 and Advanced Subsidiary Level Programme for Classes 11 modified by the requirements of Tajik Ministry of Education and offers a range of internationally accepted examinations including Cambridge’s IGCSE, AS/A Level and Checkpoints. In addition, DIS has been approved as ETS Certified Test Administration Site for ‘internet based TOEFL’. Students can enter to the official internet based TOEFL in our school.
The subjects taught are English Language, English Literature, Algebra, Geometry, Science, Computer Studies, Business Studies, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, World History, World Geography, Tajik Language, Russian Language, Turkish Language, Chinese Language, Tajik History, Tajik Geography, Music, Art, and Physical Education. As the medium of instruction is English, all subjects except the local ones are taught in English. The curriculum emphasizes the reading, writing, and speaking of foreign languages. Russian, Turkish and Chinese for Foreigners are additionally taught to interested students.
DIS was established to promote international understanding and co-operation through everyday living experiences and the pursuit of academic excellence. Students are encouraged to develop a broad, international perspective on a variety of issues through interaction with their fellow students and faculty members from other countries. The school is also dedicated to the personal growth of each student and provides a supportive environment in which creativity, community involvement, leadership and individuality are fostered.
We aim to maximize the achievement of each of our students across the breadth of the curriculum, as well as in personal and social fields.
