AIS is an international school in Ho Chi Minh City, accepting students from all over the world and teaching from kindergarten to primary and secondary school (2 to 18 years old). The school has invested heavily in facilities, in addition to a comprehensive training program, helping students develop on three main platforms: academics, arts and sports .

Specifically, the training program focuses on life skills, critical thinking, creativity and teamwork, aiming at UNESCO's criteria - encouraging education systems to prioritize "happy learning".

Under UNESCO's happy schools initiative, educational programs are encouraged to maintain a balance, paying attention to both physical and mental well-being throughout the learning process.

"This is also the reason why AIS orients students to develop on three main platforms: academics, arts and sports," the school representative emphasized.

Academically, the school offers globally recognized educational programs such as the International Baccalaureate (IB) and Cambridge International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE). The school is also accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS), ensuring that graduates receive globally recognized qualifications and knowledge.

In terms of arts, the school encourages students to develop their talents through performances at important events during the year. In addition, students learn music and become familiar with musical instruments appropriate to their talents and age. "Music is included in education to help students develop performance skills and a deep understanding of music - an important part of global culture," said a school representative.
