The International School of Macao

The International School of Macao (TIS) is a vibrant, multicultural school that offers a well-rounded and developmentally appropriate curriculum for students in Pre K to Grade 12. TIS provides many opportunities for students to explore and enhance their individuality and creativity in a truly international learning environment. Our range of academic and extra-curricular programs allow boys and girls to nurture their emerging talents and prepare themselves for a future of learning and responsible citizenship. TIS was established in 2002 to provide a Canadian curriculum and accreditation to local and expatriate students. The School opened with an initial local enrollment of 58 students on the campus of Macau University of Science and Technology (MUST). By 2006, TIS had grown to over 500 students and moved into the first phase of its new, purpose-built facility on the MUST campus. Currently, the TIS campus can accommodate a total enrollment of 1600 students with facilities spread across two buildings in two wings, as well as multiple outdoor areas for sports and recreation. Accredited with the Ministry of Education in Alberta, Canada since 2006, TIS earned the highest level of accreditation - Level 4 - in 2017 and is the only school to achieve this standing. Students graduate from TIS with an Alberta High School diploma and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma recognized by universities worldwide. 100% of TIS graduates have received offers of admission from over 350 universities and colleges around the world.
