What is IBDP?

New Facility for Middle and High School – Taiken Campus
KIS is renovating a new facility for middle and high school students, which is called the KIS Taiken Campus. It is about 6 minutes walk from the current KIS campus and it will open in August 2024. There will be significantly more space for our older students and capacity for substantial growth. The facilities will include a new science lab, performing arts room, art and design studio, classrooms for all other subjects, and a student study lounge. This exciting development will ensure that KIS can provide an outstanding experience and enable the development of a full high school programme for the school.
