As a vibrant and dynamic new school , MIS enjoys the collaborative support and partnership of its founding school Merchiston Castle School Edinburgh which brings almost 200 years of excellence at the forefront of Scottish independent boarding education.   The ethos of both schools is based on people and relationships. Particular importance is attached to the development of personal character and moral values.
