Learning at mis
MIS follows the guidelines of the British Curriculum leading to the internationally recognised examinations of IGCSEs (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) and AS (Advanced Subsidiary) levels or A (Advanced) levels.
A vast majority of our staff are British trained teachers or they have extensive experience of delivering the Cambridge International Programme.
In 2016, we became a fully registered Cambridge Primary School offering the CIE primary Checkpoint exams. This provides a clear measure of a child’s performance compared with children of a similar age around the world.

We offer globally recognised curriculum options such as the Cambridge International Primary Curriculum, IGCSEs and A Levels, allowing your child to begin on a path of self-discovery and lifelong learning, blossoming into a well-rounded young person and responsible global citizen.
The values of an MIS education are clear. The purposefulness of the students, our drive for excellence and the highest quality in all we do as staff, will shine through on these pages. I also hope that you gain a sense of the care and compassion that underpins learning and success in all domains at MIS. We really do live by our motto, ‘Respect – Integrity – Responsibility’.

How it all began

It moved to its present site on the edge of the town of Morogoro on the Dodoma road in 1992. Initially a primary school serving a predominately expatriate families, MIS expanded into secondary school education in 2005 with its first cohort of IGCSE exam students sitting in 2010. In August 27th, 2015 we began offering A levels in 6th Form.
