QSI International School of Minsk, a private non-profit institution that opened in September of 1993, offers high quality education in the English language for students from three years through eighteen years of age. The school facility is located in a residential area near the city center of Minsk. The building contains 11 classrooms, a cafeteria, computer lab, library, auditorium, music room, physical education area, playground, and small soccer field. A nearby swimming pool, track, and playing field are also used for physical education classes.

The school's educational philosophy, which includes a personalized approach to instruction, leads to teaching for mastery. We believe in success for all students. We seek to create a positive learning environment since we believe a child learns more if he enjoys his learning experience.

THE PRIMARY PURPOSE of the school is to meet the needs of the children in Minsk who require this type of education with a view to continuing their education in their home countries with a minimum of adjustment problems. In addition to its scholastic goals, the school endeavors to provide its students with knowledge of Belarus.
