International School Baia Mare was founded in 2015 with a bold vision: to bring world-class Cambridge International education to Maramureș. What started with 52 students and 8 teachers has grown into a thriving community of over 520 students from 32 countries.
As an officially authorized Cambridge International School, we offer a rigorous academic program from Primary through A-Levels. Our multicultural environment fosters international understanding, critical thinking, and the skills needed to succeed in our interconnected world.
Today, ISBM stands as a beacon of educational excellence in Romania, with graduates attending top universities worldwide and making positive contributions to their communities.
At International School Baia Mare, we believe education extends far beyond the classroom. Our mission is to nurture confident, compassionate, and creative thinkers who are prepared to make meaningful contributions to our world. Through our Cambridge International curriculum, dedicated faculty, and vibrant international community, we inspire students to discover their passions, embrace challenges, and develop the skills and character needed to thrive in an ever-changing global landscape. Every child who walks through our doors is valued, supported, and challenged to reach their full potential.
