International School of Düsseldorf (ISD) — Düsseldorf, Germany
School type: IB Continuum School · IB Programmes: PYP, MYP, DP · Live coaching in CET (Central Europe)
International School of Düsseldorf (ISD) was founded in 1968 in Kaiserswerth, a residential district on the Rhine, north of Düsseldorf. ISD enrols approximately 900 students from 50+ countries. The school is one of Germany's longest-established international schools and holds IB World School authorisation across all three IB programmes.
ISD offers IB Biology at both HL and SL. The Kaiserswerth campus features modern science labs refurbished in 2020. Düsseldorf's Japanese and Korean expat communities — the largest in Germany, centred on the city's Japantown (Immermannstraße corridor) — are significant ISD feeders, alongside the broader European corporate expat base.
ISD graduates matriculate to UK Russell Group, Dutch, German, and US universities. The school's Rhine-Ruhr location gives access to Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf Medical School and the Cologne-Bonn university cluster.
Sourced from publicly available rankings, the school's own annual diploma results communications, and the IB Organization's programme authorisations.
ISD graduates approximately 70 IB Diploma candidates annually. The school serves a multinational corporate community; Biology HL is a strong Group 4 choice, particularly among East Asian and South Asian families targeting medical pathways.
ISD reports placements at UK Russell Group (Imperial, UCL, Edinburgh), Dutch universities (Leiden, Amsterdam, Maastricht Medicine), German universities (HHU Düsseldorf, Cologne), and US top-50. The Dutch border proximity makes Maastricht Medicine a popular local medical target.
We align with ISD's DP calendar (late August start, February mocks, May exams). Our sessions accommodate ISD's Wednesday afternoon CAS block and the East Asian community's Saturday Japanese/Korean school schedules.
