About Rotterdam International Secondary School (RISS)

Our Vision:

Educating for self-awareness, curiosity and integrity in a changing world.


Our Mission:

Our mission is for every student to enjoy their youth.

We do this by providing innovative approaches to learning, by encouraging

achievement, by fostering international mindedness with local and global

engagement, by modelling ethical behaviour and by acting respectfully and with

honesty.


Our Core Values:

 Respect

 Responsibility

 Relationships

 Courage


RISS holds a unique position within both The Netherlands and the Wolfert school

group in Rotterdam, as we are a state subsidised semi-private school, in order to be

a provider of international education. RISS serves the growing need Rotterdam has

for high quality international education for foreign nationals or returning Dutch

citizens, and is not based on exclusivity or privilege.


While many schools claim to be international simply because of the curriculum they

offer, RISS offers a dynamic and comprehensive coalition of international teachers

drawn from across the globe. We are united by our culture and common belief of an

inclusive, culturally diverse, student centred, enquiry-driven and concept-based

education that not only prepares young people for university and life beyond the

school, but also ensure that they find value in their youth.


RISS offers a warm community invested in the support and development of students,

where students are known and supported as individuals. Our pastoral programme

supported by our tutors ensure student well-being. English is our language of

instruction, though students are encouraged to study their own language, and sit their

own language exams. 


Our re-accreditation by CIS and NEASC ensures we offer high quality education and

we offer both external examination with Cambridge Assessment (IGCSE) and the

International Baccalaureate Organisation (IBDP). Our students are well placed to go

into a variety of Higher Education institutions worldwide and in The Netherlands.

We foster a culture of a love and enjoyment of learning, joy in achievement, and high

expectations amongst our staff and students while actively and strategically

encouraging collaboration, tolerance, diversity, belonging and a sense of service.
