The management of ISCS consists of strong leaders who possess excellent qualifications and long experience in the education field, and have a good understanding of local traditions, cultureand values. ISCS currently (2012-2013) has 175 teachers and 174 admin/support staff members from 25 different nationalities. ISCS is a multi-national school; the 2440 students come from 50 different countries including the UAE. All subjects other than Arabic, Islamic and Social Studies are taught in English including provisions for non-Arabic speakers.
It is integral to the school's aim to instill confidence, self-esteem, moral values and life skills in every student from Kindergarten to grade 13.In tandem, parents are encouraged to be part of their child's progress. ISCS has various facilities for communication between parents and the school; one of the outstanding features is the personalised web portal accounts that allow parents to monitor their child's development and stay in touch with teachers via the Internet. This committed partnership has enabled a safe and nurturing environment where pupils are helped to achieve their full academic and extra-curricular potential.
In 2011-2012, foraccreditation purposes, the Ministry of Education inspected ISCS along with other schools in the Northern Emirates. ISCS got Highly Effective in all Six Focus Areas, and, as a result, ISCS has been judged as "Highly Effective with Distinction" by the Ministry of Education, the highest possible rating.
Another milestone was achieved in June 2012; ISCS has been awarded with the "Promethean Centre of Excellence" accreditation, recognising the school for becoming one of only nine Promethean Centres ofExcellence in the Middle East. Currently, ISCS is the first and only Centre of Excellence in the UAE. Promethean accredits Centres of Excellence to schools that actively encourage the development and application of diverse learning environments, through the use of technology within the classroom. The school has the latest Interactive Whiteboards in all classrooms enhancing and promoting interactive Teaching and Learning. In addition to Interactive Whiteboards, the school has also implemented other technologies to support a 21st Century interactive education provision second to none. Among the technologies implemented are Activote devices to promote the learning experience in classrooms with instant feedback, Visualisers to replace the old overhead projectors, ActivEngage and Samsung Slates for KS 4 and 5 students. The Intl School of Creative Science is driving Excellence in Education through the rigorous use of technology to enhance Teaching and Learning in today's modern world keeping abreast and beyond.
Back in 2004, the Ministry of Education selected ISCS among all the British curriculum schools in Dubai and Sharjah as being one of the two outstanding examples in the country for its unique dual-curriculum and the selection of its books.
