The International School of Kazan (ISK) is a growing, vibrant, student-centered school in a growing, vibrant, education-centered city. Designed to provide a modern alternative, the school has purpose-built facilities, abundant educational technology, and a caring community. ISK is an IB World School, authorized for PYP, MYP and DP; we are also accredited by CIS. Our students come predominantly from Russian and Tatar families who are seeking progressive, thoughtful approaches to education. If you believe, as we do, that international education is the best form of education, and that all students (not just expats) need to benefit from that education, then ISK might be your perfect next school.
The city of Kazan is located on the banks of the Volga river, approximately 700 km east of Moscow. With roots back to the 11th century, it has all the hallmarks of a beautiful European Old Town. It is now a growing international community, and one of the largest educational centers in Russia. It is also the “Sports Capital of Russia”, with a huge range of activities to choose from.

Positions available at
International School of Kazan
When we had a teacher decide to take another job in mid-July, we were left with few options. Historically, it was a tough position to fill. Within 24 hours of posting the position on Schrole, we were able to offer a contract to a more-qualified educator.
