At International School, we believe that exceptional effort and outstanding achievements should not only be recognised — but rewarded. That’s why we have launched the Honours Class — an exclusive programme designed for high-achieving students, taking education to the next level and preparing the leaders of tomorrow.
What Is the Honours Class?
The Honours Class is a selective, advanced programme available only to top students — those who have demonstrated exceptional academic performance (at least 75% on Cambridge IGCSE exams). This programme goes beyond standard teaching and offers an interdisciplinary, research-based approach that blends finance, entrepreneurship, technology, global studies, and STEM, while placing strong emphasis on leadership, ethics, and real-world impact.
“Millionaire Skills” That Transform
Within the Honours Class, students develop the essential skills that set them apart on the global stage:
- Financial literacy and portfolio management
- Negotiation and strategic partnerships
- Leadership and emotional intelligence
- Digital branding, public speaking, and storytelling
- Technological literacy (AI, blockchain, data analysis)
- Global economics and intercultural business
- Design thinking, innovation, and interdisciplinary STEM projects
- Ethics and sustainability — decision-making with social impact
The goal is clear: not only to equip students with knowledge but also to help them turn it into measurable outcomes. They will develop strategic thinking, understand risk and value, and learn how to turn their ideas into real-world projects — all while acting with integrity and responsibility.
Programme Structure and Teaching Methods
The Honours Class runs throughout the academic year, with two weekly sessions, allowing students to make steady progress and work on complex, high-impact projects. The teaching approach includes:
- Problem-based learning and real-world case studies
- Simulations of markets, negotiations, and technologies
- Mentorship support and peer-review
- Formative and summative assessments through portfolios and public Capstone presentations
Why This Programme Matters
Inspired by the approaches of leading institutions — from elite British schools to universities such as Harvard and Stanford — the Honours Class nurtures a new generation of game-changers: students who recognise opportunities, value ethics, make strategic decisions, and lead innovation in business, technology, and society.
