About Us

History of the school

1c5a1696

The school was founded by a Tunisian entrepreneur who believed that local students, when given the opportunity, could succeed globally. To make this possible, the founder provided an international experience for Tunisian students.

Oxford International School of Tunis (OIST) was founded in 2018 by a passionate Tunisian entrepreneur who recognized the need for an English language-based education in Tunisia — something that was rare at the time. Driven by a strong belief that local students could succeed and thrive on a global stage, the founder saw an incredible opportunity to offer something truly unique. 

 

The founder’s dream was to create a welcoming environment where students felt valued and inspired to reach their fullest potential. OIST was established as a private, independent institution with the aim of offering a world-class education through the British curriculum, delivered in English. This rare opportunity at the time allowed students to prepare for success not only in local universities but also at leading institutions around the world.

Mission and Vision

OIST is more than just a school—it’s a home where students are nurtured, inspired, and empowered to reach their full potential. We believe every student has the ability to succeed, and we are committed to providing an education that not only sharpens minds but also builds confidence and a deep sense of belonging.

Our vision is to be a place where both local and international students have access to a world-class, English-language education that opens doors to endless opportunities. Education has the power to transform lives, and at OIST, we strive to ignite passion, curiosity, and the courage to dream big. With unwavering belief in our students, we shape future leaders and changemakers—one student at a time.

Educational values

1.Excellence​

We believe in striving for the highest standards in academics, character, and personal growth. By fostering a culture of excellence, we empower students to reach their full potential and continuously push the boundaries of what they can achieve.

2.Discipline

Success requires commitment, responsibility, and respect for structure. We teach students the importance of discipline by encouraging them to follow school rules, develop self-control, and stay dedicated to their goals. By learning to uphold expectations within the school community, they are better prepared to navigate the responsibilities and challenges of real life.

3.Empathy

 Understanding and respecting others is at the heart of a strong community. We nurture empathy by teaching students to listen, care, and appreciate different perspectives, fostering kindness and meaningful human connections.

4.Global Citizenship

In an interconnected world, students must be prepared to engage with diverse cultures and global challenges. We inspire students to think beyond borders, embrace diversity, and act responsibly to make a positive impact on the world.
