VIS believes that child protection is an essential element of the school’s responsibilities towards children and young people’s protection. VIS’ priority is to prevent any form of child abuse, violence, exploitation or neglect and to recognize that such acts are a breach of children’s human rights. Therefore, ensuring the protection of young people’s physical and emotional wellbeing is the school’s commitment.

As an international school, we expose students to the diverse world around them and celebrate different cultures. We celebrate diversity by ensuring that all members of the school community regardless of ancestry, culture, ethnicity, sex, physical or intellectual ability, race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, or other factors – are welcomed, included, treated fairly, and respected. Teachers are encouraged to provide students with a variety of opportunities to learn about diversity and different cultures.
We value people’s right to express views and opinions in a respectful manner, however, discrimination on any basis is unacceptable.
The anti-discrimination policy, will apply for all issues related to school life, including but not limited to: teaching and learning; facilities and access to them; guidance and counselling; and on all our community interactions. All members of the VIS community, including Board Members, Leadership team, staff, students and parents, are expected to respect this policy which is aligned with the VIS Inclusion policy.
