What makes us the best school you can attend?

Our private school in Beirut, Lebanon, goes to great lengths to show our worth to prospective students. We believe that our educational undertakings should be reviewed by unbiased, independent, third-party experts for quality assurance.

This not only keeps us ‘on our toes’, but it also guarantees that Eastwood International School is meeting the world’s top educational standards. To put it plainly, it ensures we are not getting ‘old’ or ‘stale’ in our approach. The discipline it takes to assess our own programming continually is extensive. However, we believe it’s worth it. It makes us a better school for our students.

It gives us a spot on the international stage among our education peers. It allows us to become an influence in education since we are constantly learning and have much to share with others through these improvement processes.

You can be sure that the leadership team at Eastwood International School is devoted to maintaining its standing as one of the best schools in Lebanon, and – we hope – in the world. Below are some of the accreditation(s), awards and successes we have achieved to that end:

Some of our accreditations:
