| AMERICANS COMING
TO LONDON are increasingly looking for a school
that offers the academic depth and breadth of the International
Baccalaureate (IB) programmes, whilst also making the
most of their stay in London. As the only IB school
in the heart of London, and with the attractive policy
of using London as a classroom, Southbank International
School has been the first choice for many. In fact,
growing demand has meant that in September 2003 Southbank
will open a third branch in Westminster for Middle and
High School Students (11-18). Southbank Kensington will
become a dedicated nursery and primary school (3-11)
and Southbank Hampstead (3-14) is expanding to meet
additional demands for places.
Southbank Westminster is located at 63-65 Portland Place,
London W1. Designed by James Adams, the front part of
the building has been Grade II listed by English Heritage
and it features huge marble fireplaces, sweeping staircases,
grand stucco ceilings and crystal chandeliers. In fact,
the library will be located in one of the most beautiful
(class)rooms in London.
Students will be able to enjoy the luxury of having
an on-site cafeteria. Regents Park is within easy walking
distance for sport and recreation.
In order to preserve the ethos of the school growth
will be limited. Each Southbank school will keep the
family atmosphere that has made the school so successful.
High School will continue to enjoy an open campus and
the extra space will allow the number of subjects on
offer to grow.
For further information about any
of the branches of Southbank International School,

Kensington, 36-38 Kensington Park Road, London W11
