Canadian International School Kunshan (CISK) was founded in 2012, initially offering the world-class Ontario (Canada) curriculum. Over the years, CISK has established strong roots in Kunshan and evolved into a fully authorized IB Continuum School, providing the Primary Years, Middle Years, and Diploma Programmes for students aged 3 to 18. This growth has fostered a diverse community of over 300 students from 24 nationalities, supported by a team of passionate educators, skilled administrators, and dedicated operational staff.
Located next to Duke Kunshan University, CISK benefits from a wealth of community partnerships and resources that enhance the educational experience of its students.
