What the Masterclass Programme is

Masterclasses are designed to inspire and challenge students through specialised workshops and unique learning opportunities, led by industry experts, academic leaders and accomplished professionals from around the globe.

They go beyond the classroom — giving students a deeper understanding of their chosen fields and empowering them to excel in areas of passion and interest.

How it works

The programme runs throughout the academic year, with sessions scheduled during school hours and in the DISCOVERY after-school hours. Participation is open to all students from Grades 6 to 12, and students choose the sessions that match their interests and goals.

Programme highlights

Bridging education and the real world

The Masterclass Programme reflects our commitment to future-ready learning: exploring passions, acquiring cutting-edge knowledge, and cultivating the skills that set students apart.

Questions families ask about masterclasses

What is a masterclass session — and how does it work at ISS?

A specialised workshop led by an expert in their field — hands-on and interactive rather than a lecture. Sessions run through the academic year, during school hours and in the DISCOVERY after-school hours.

Which students can take part?

All students from Grades 6 to 12. Students choose the sessions that align with their own interests and goals.

How is this different from a workshop or a class?

The person at the front: masterclasses are led by practitioners — industry experts, academics and professionals — who bring their field into the room, not a curriculum.
