“When I talk to parents, learners, or our faculty about what they love about AISM and want to protect above all else, I hear about our diversity. AISM is a place where people from many walks of life can come together around a common vision and learn from one another's stories, experiences, and perspectives.”

Ian Hoke

“AISM's location makes it special... in the corner of Southern Africa, just metres from the Indian Ocean, surrounded by local communities and home to all sorts of amazing birds and other wildlife.”

Sam Sherratt
Former Director of Learning

 

“I feel like the staff and the families and the students all pull together, including the outer community, to be one. It is a great feeling.”

“I relish the opportunity to think and tinker alongside learners, especially when they get into the flow of exploring and testing ideas to pursue multiple and purposeful solutions.”

Ben Damaso

“What makes AISM distinctive is the warmth of the community. Teachers and students have close caring relationships which focus on each student as an individual. The community is small enough that high school students often know ES students by name. It makes for a really supportive place for students to stretch and grow.”
