An Innovative Approach to Holistic Education
Academics at Finland International School: Where Learning Meets Passion.
At Finnish International School (FIS), we deliver a future-ready curriculum that blends the best of Finnish and Indian educational practices. Our dynamic approach fosters critical thinking, creativity, and real-world problem-solving through experiential learning—play-based in early years and project-based in higher grades. Each student follows a Personalized Learning Plan (PLP), tailored to their unique strengths and goals in collaboration with teachers and parents. Inspired by the Finnish model, our teaching emphasizes well-being, hands-on learning, and small class sizes, supported by modern technology. Assessments go beyond grades, focusing on continuous growth through formative, self, and peer evaluations. At FIS, we nurture confident, well-rounded learners equipped for the future.

Our K–12 programme is a one-of-a-kind blend of Finland’s world-renowned educational magic and the depth of the Indian curriculum. Every child gets a personalised learning plan, designed to match their pace, passions, and potential. And guess what? No homework! We believe evenings are for storytelling, stargazing, and being wonderfully, playfully bored. From robotics to rangoli, football to philosophy—our holistic approach ensures children grow not just smarter, but kinder, braver, and more self-aware.
Our FIS Juniors program
Welcome to the world of FIS Juniors, where tiny explorers begin their grand journey! Our play-based and hands-on learning approach means every day is filled with wonder, discovery, and giggles. Whether it’s painting with fingers or building castles out of cardboard, children learn through doing, dreaming, and collaborating. In our safe and nurturing spaces, little ones are free to be curious, messy, imaginative—and most importantly, themselves.
