About RIS

We do not learn for school, but for life.
Seneca
Russian International School (RIS) is a unique educational space for children from 2 to 18 years old, where they can get a high quality international education without leaving Russia.

RIS combines two leading educational programmes - Russian and British - which opens the doors to the best educational institutions in the world for our students.

We offer a rich curriculum that helps each student to develop their intellectual and personal potential. Under the guidance of experienced teachers, a holistic approach to the development of the child's personality is realised. Thanks to small classes and an individualised approach, each student receives attention and support during the learning process.

This holistic approach contributes not only to excellent academic results, but also to the formation of a harmonious, confident and well-rounded personality.

RIS is accredited by the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, as well as Cambridge and Edexcel international certificates, which confirms the high level of educational standards. Graduates receive two certificates - Russian and international, which allows them to continue their studies both in the best universities in Russia and abroad.
‘Education is the key to the world, and at RIS we open the door to limitless possibilities for every student.’
