With more than 50 nationalities represented in the ISF student body, the school is a vibrant international community. Each family has a different story to tell. Below you will find some of them. We hope that you will visit ISF to find out more about us and become part of the ISF family of nations.
I like ISF because I have a huge family and all their activities are organized on one campus including music, tennis, and swimming lessons. All of my children are different and ISF has something to offer each and every one.

We are very thankful to ISF for all the careful assistance, support and advice. Especially the presence of the Japanese teacher was helpful for our Japanese family. If we could have a chance to come back to Frankfurt, I am sure to make my younger son come join at ISF.

An excellent school with the most amazing facilities, curriculum and teaching methods! My daughter got into a well reputed UK Grammar school due to the strong academic foundations laid by ISF. Be it languages, music, sports, science or IT, ISF gave it all to her!

As a parent and a researcher in the field of early childhood and school education I am very impressed with the professionalism of this school. We spontaneously decided to start our daughter in first grade and are very impressed by the daily level of support and commitment towards our daughter’s transition.
The level of personal dedication of the primary school coordinator Mrs. Jarque is unheard of. She went out of her way to secure our child’s wellbeing, personally provided individual solutions to us as a family when they were needed, making sure on a daily basis our daughter had the best start possible. Her class room teacher Mr. O’Toole is very proactive, offers a lot of personal support and is a very experienced teacher with an amazing personality, always cheerful and supportive.
We as parents are witnessing the holistic approach of the school on a daily basis which targets educational outcomes as well as the wellbeing of children. We are very impressed with the academic outcomes and the systematic communication with parents through modern technology and face to face. Especially because concerns and feedback of parents is taken very seriously.
ISF provides an outstanding teaching environment were absolutely nothing is left to chance due to amazing leadership and team work and where the individual needs of each child and their family are meet. Everyone whom we met so far from the teaching staff, the security team to the people working in administration or in the cafeteria is professional, supportive and cheerful! After only a few weeks into the school year it feels like family.
After working almost 20 years in the field of quality in education I can clearly say: this is an exceptional and outstanding school for German and international children whose parents are looking for a high level of professionalism where the individual educational and emotional needs of their child(ren) are taken seriously and are being met.
Andrea Tures
I did the IB Diploma Programme from ISF and was amazed by the amount of effort all the staff, from subject teachers to university counsellors, put in for the students on an individual basis. My special regards to my coordinator, Dr. Lehmann, who was really there at every step of the way and supported me through the journey. Even during the pandemic, which came right at the time of our senior year, the transitions were smooth and everything was handled amazingly well.
