What is ISS?
ISS is a new consultancy set up in 2019 to support international schools in need of the best advice, resource and guidance. It has been founded by Andy Atkinson, a former International School Head Teacher and IB Director based on a desire to assist schools at any stage of their journey in ways not commonly offered by more traditional educational experts in the field.
ISS services are characterised by a quicker pace, succinct advice, a combination of educational & business priorities with practical, jargon-free action plans based on expertise and decades of experience in actually doing the jobs you do. Furthermore, ISS offers to stay with you throughout the planning and delivery stages and ensures the desired results can be achieved together.

Who does ISS support?
International schools today face multiple challenges whether you are an exciting school start-up, an embryonic school undergoing first accreditation, an established school facing growing pains or a group of schools looking for greater alignment and consistency. ISS consultants can meet your needs. You might be a proprietor looking for new directions and advice, a board seeking independent expertise, a busy headteacher in need of an external view or a business group looking to launch a new school venture. ISS can help you with a number of tailored services with tangible outcomes arrived at from in-depth support. We can provide distant or on-site support or a combination of both.
