CIS Philosophy

At the Canadian International School– Amman, we believe in a holistic approach to education that targets the physical, social, emotional and mental growth of the child. We believe students learn best when they are actively engaged and work together to construct their knowledge and solve problems. To that effect, we value inquiry-based approaches that offer learners chances to explore their own ideas and reflect on their learning.


We value diversity and inclusion as two elements that will create a safe and supportive environment for all, and we believe students thrive in a nurturing environment that gives voice to both learners and educators, empowering them.
