School Values
Inquisitive
We are eager learners cultivating a desire for knowledge that extends beyond the classroom. We promote intellectual honesty and equip students with tools of critical thinking that expand ideas of what’s possible, both academically and personally.
Inviting
Our Hello is a commitment to exchange ideas and experiences with one another. At ISG, everyone is welcome, equal and honoured for their particularities. Celebrating our shared culture allows us to flourish as a community of individuals.
Sincere
We communicate sincerely to convey our identity, our endeavours and our desires. By leading with transparency, we avoid misinterpretation and generate a respect for difference. Together we build a safe environment where expression is free and full.

Our campus
Experience the best of both worlds: Haren’s charm and Groningen’s vibrancy
International School Groningen resides in the green and welcoming borough of Haren–at one time an independent municipality, and today a part of the city of Groningen. The tranquil environment, speckled with historic monuments, makes for an inspiring backdrop for education and cultivating friendships.
