The International Indian School Jeddah
formerly known as the Embassy of India
School, was founded in 1969. It made a very
humble beginning with a limited number of students,
staff and infrastructural facilities
in a makeshift area. The objective of
establishing the school was to impart
quality education to the children of Indian
nationals residing in Jeddah. The
construction of the present Girls' Section
started in 1982 with the foundation stone
laid by the Late Prime Minister Mrs. Indira
Gandhi and was completed in 1984. The
section located in Al-Aziziah Dist. spreads
over an area of more than 8000 sq. meters
and has all the required facilities. By the
late 1980s, the students' strength had
unexpectedly increased to the extent that
the vast premises of the school in Al-Aziziah
was not sufficient. Hence, the construction
of an additional premises - the present
Boys' Section was started in 1992 and
completed in 1994.The
Boys' Section in Al-Rehab Dist. spreads over
an area of more than 17000 sq. meters with a
big playground and all other facilities.
With the blessings of the Almighty and
constant efforts put in by well wishers, the
school has expanded in a phenomenal manner.
Currently the school is catering to the
educational needs of over 12000 students...more
