Welcome from the Principal

It is with great excitement and deep honour that I join The International School Bangalore (TISB) as Principal in this landmark 25th year, a celebration of a quarter-century of excellence in education. As a co-educational, day and boarding through school, TISB is a beacon of educational excellence and inspiration, nurturing generations of local and international students to become confident, compassionate, and capable global citizens.

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions a parent makes. At the heart of my educational philosophy lies a simple yet transformative belief: happy children thrive. We want our students to flourish, academically, socially, and emotionally within an environment that is as nurturing as it is ambitious.

Our visionary Chairman, Dr KP Gopalkrishna, has always championed a holistic and inspirational approach to education. TISB students have a unique identity rooted in intellectual curiosity, independence, and the courage to be themselves.

We celebrate every child’s journey through the school as much as we do their examination results at iGCSE and IB. From their first discoveries in Kindergarten to their remarkable achievements in Grade 12 we want to ensure nothing holds back a TISB student from following their purpose and passion. The IB learner profile is woven into the fabric of our school, cultivating leadership, empathy, and a global perspective in every learner.

Our values matter: respect, acceptance, collaboration, and honesty. As important are the opportunities in the arts, sports, service and leadership, helping students uncover interests, build resilience, and develop the skills they need to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

We deeply value the strong partnerships between our dedicated teachers, boarding staff, and families. These relationships are key to each student’s growth, fulfilment, and long-term success.

I look forward to welcoming you to our stunning 140-acre campus so you can experience the energy, warmth, and ambition that define TISB. Come and see how your child can thrive, grow, and be inspired to reach their fullest potential.

Mrs Kate Reynolds LLB, PGCE, MEd.
