Introduction

Star Smart International Educational Community is an all-through international school in Sulaymaniyah, Iraq, serving ages 4 to 18. The Kindergarten (KG1–KG2) and Primary (Grades 1–9) classrooms are housed in a state-of-the-art building with plans to extend to a K–12 program. The school opened in September 2023 and operates under a Cambridge International Curriculum for English, Mathematics, Science, Computing and Global Perspective, while the other subjects are provided by the Ministry of Education. Lessons emphasise student-centered, activity-based learning. Cambridge components are complemented by MOE subjects to create a broad, practical education. A distinctive feature is that students do not carry bags to or from school; homework and review tasks are completed in school. The academic year runs three terms, and a summer program offers booster classes in languages, mathematics and science. The school hosts events such as Chess Challenge, Annual Science Fair, and International Mother's Language Day, engaging families and community.
