          Dushanbe International School endeavours to create a partnership between students, their parents and their teachers that will provide its students with the support and knowledge necessary to reach their highest physical, intellectual, social and emotional capabilities.

          Dushanbe International School encourages its students to gain an understanding of the essential concepts of multi-cultural and international understanding as a part of a worldwide contribution towards world peace. Educational Objectives We promote educational opportunities for students through the medium of the Tajik and English languages. Russian is taught an additional language.

           

           

           

          Our pupils are a mixture of Tajik and other nationalities who are either permanent or temporary residents of the Republic of Tajikistan. Thus we fully appreciate that our students are drawn from a multitude of cultural, religious and ethnic backgrounds. We therefore seek to provide a secular education that reflects and takes advantage of this diversity by embracing the ideals of international understanding and responsible citizenship.

          We use the Tajik National Curriculum combined with the Cambridge University International Programmes and the resultant academic accreditation to support our learners to become:

          • Confident when working with ideas and information - their own plus those acquired from other sources.

          • Responsible for themselves as well as being responsive to and respectful of others.

          • Reflective as learners whilst they are developing their learning abilities.

          • Innovative and equipped for new and future challenges

          • Engaged intellectually and socially, ready to make a difference as their learning progresses.

        • Cooperative

        • They co-operate with their teachers and treat them with due respect.

        • Collaborative

        • They co-operate with their fellow pupils and likewise treat them with respect .

        • Constructive
