It’s been a year of innovation here at CIS as we reviewed a fundamental part of our work: CIS International Accreditation. We’ve taken a bold step, and we’re proud of the approach that schools will experience when they pursue our new accreditation framework and process. 

Jane Larsson reflects on three new realizations that emerged from our 2024 CIS Global Forum, including the digital transitions students experience when they head to higher education.

Announcing the recipients of our 2024 Recognition in Excellence. It’s that time of year when we have the pleasure of taking a moment to recognise the work of the professionals in our university admission, guidance, and future pathways community, and their significant impact on the lives of the young people they support. 

School safeguarding specialist, Leila Holmyard, explains how identity-based harm and the promotion of diversity, equity and inclusion intersect with child protection and safeguarding. She also shares student feedback and how schools can take action to support and protect them.

CIS supporting members are educational organizations whose purposes and objectives are aligned with our own and whose services complement those we provide to our higher education and school members. We work cooperatively with these organizations to further our respective missions in the international education community through purposeful collaboration, mutual support, and the exchange of information.

There’s been huge progress over the past 10 years in the ways we protect and safeguard children in our care. However, international schools still face significant child protection risks, and mitigating them can be difficult. Jane Foster, a specialist in managing allegations, outlines eight key priorities for schools.

Congratulations on achieving CIS International Accreditation
