International School of Toulouse

The International School of Toulouse (IST), founded in 1980, serves the international community of Toulouse — France's fourth-largest city and the European capital of aerospace, home to Airbus, Thales, Motorola, and numerous other major international corporations. Educating approximately 700 students aged 3 to 18 from over 50 nationalities, IST offers the full International Baccalaureate continuum — PYP, MYP, and Diploma Programme — and is an authorised IB World School. The school is accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS) and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). IST's student body reflects Toulouse's aerospace-dominated economy, with a large proportion of students from families of engineers, scientists, and executives working for Airbus and other aerospace companies. The school's campus features excellent modern facilities for science, technology, the arts, and sport. IST's consistently strong IB Diploma results and warm community atmosphere make it the school of choice for internationally mobile families in the Toulouse region.
