As an important part of the Savremena Education group, the International School has from day one met and implemented the high criteria and official standards that make the prestigious Savremena Education group community recognisable around the world.
The Savremena Education group standards implemented at the International School are the fruit of comprehensive expert analysis of contemporary teaching methods and the use of technology in teaching, the desire to reach the best possible levels of effectiveness in teaching and the need for compliance with the defined, legally established framework.

The standards are the result of decades of experience of the Savremena Education group, a prominent member of which is the International School. Owing to the well-tested practices of the world’s best schools and the implementation of high EU standards when it comes to teaching and education quality, the International School has successfully applied these standards for years.
The high Savremena Education group standards of excellence are the main reason why the International School is recognised, in the country and throughout the region, as a school that offers a high level of teaching quality and modern approaches, thanks to which its students have no problem continuing their educational journey at the best schools and faculties around the world, as well as in other Savremena Education group institutions. The International School carefully and regularly monitors and enhances the implementation of Savremena Education group standards so as to make sure our students are always provided with top-quality knowledge.

The International School implements Savremena Education group standards based on the following documents:
1) Savremena standards for teachers
The teachers at Savremena Education group institutions are required to meet the high standards that imply the synergy of adequate professional competencies, respecting high ethical principles and performing all activities required in order to create the best teaching practices.
Savremena standards for teachers constitute the representative points based on which the eachers are obliged to shape their teachers and advance their professional integrity.

2) Savremena standards for leaders in pedagogy
Pedagogy leaders are an important part of the Savremena Education group. They are in charge of the advancements of teaching processes and raising the quality of educational institutions.
These standards constitute concrete guidelines that help these leaders advance their own approach, and perform the evaluation of educational institutions with maximum fairness and objectivity.

4) Savremena standards self-evaluation handbook for educational institutions
Self-evaluation is a very important aspect of the implementation of Savremena standards within
individual institutions. It constitutes a way to simultaneously control the quality and advance the existing practices and approaches. Self-evaluation is implemented in order to ensure the highest possible standards and their realization in everyday practice of the educational institutions.
In other words: through the evaluation of the implementation of Savremena standards, we evaluate the quality of the educational institution’s work through identifying positive examples and practices that ought to be continued, as well as any elements that ought to be improved. This enables the institutions to plan the necessary measures and procedures concerning the strengthening of the quality of teaching and the standards themselves.
The evaluation is performed by a dedicated team of established experts who check the level of fulfilment of the key indicators of quality teaching based on different sets of information at appropriate times.
