Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Initial Online Application:
Parents begin the admissions process by completing the online application form specific to their child's educational stage. The form requires basic applicant information, parent contact details, and an overview of the child's educational background. Parents must also select the desired grade level and expected start date.
2. Submission of Academic Documents:
Families are required to upload recent school records, such as preschool reports or previous report cards. Any documents in languages other than Polish or English must be translated by a certified translator. Parents applying for High School should be aware that their child must also submit a 120–150 word essay and adhere to specific submission deadlines (e.g., May 23 for upcoming HS0/HS1 applicants).
3. Special Needs Disclosure:
During the application, parents are asked to disclose any known or suspected special educational needs. If a child has been assessed by a professional, parents must upload the relevant written evaluations. This early disclosure is necessary for the school to determine if they can provide the appropriate support and accommodations for the student.
4. Final Review and Placement:
A submitted application is only considered complete once all supporting documents are received. The school then evaluates the candidate's academic achievements and language proficiency. Parents should note that final admission, particularly for upper levels like High School and the Diploma Programme, is strictly based on the student's academic record and current seat availability.
The school does not publicly detail the operation of a formal waitlist or applicant pool system. The admissions forms simply state that enrollment for specific classes is subject to seat availability.
The school does not publicly disclose any information regarding the availability of scholarships or financial aid programs.

Serving students from primary through high school, ISOP offers the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP), and Diploma Programme (DP). A distinctive element of the curriculum is the HS1 and HS2 "Pre-IB" phase, transitioning students from middle school into subject mastery in preparation for the DP. Another unique feature is the "O Class," a specialized one-year intensive program designed to help non-native English speakers integrate into high school. Facilities support robust learning, featuring fully equipped science laboratories, a dedicated computer lab, and a library with access to digital tools like JSTOR. The community is highlighted by signature initiatives like the annual Winter Show and the Laar & Berg Student Exchange, fostering strong student expression and international connection.
