Description:
ICS-Rio, is located in one of the most progressive areas of Brazil, Barra da Tijuca. The school has undergone two renovations and boasts modern facilities. Twenty-one countries are represented in ICS, RIO with the main clientele coming from the USA, Europe, Argentina and the UK. Most families are involved in international companies in the oil or telecommunications industries.
Highlights:
All NICS schools are accredited by accrediting associations in the States. Therefore, our schools use American curriculum and follow the American calendar. We use a variety of American-based curricula. Each of the NICS schools has an administrator and curriculum committee that determines the best curriculum and resources for their school. Just like schools in the United States, the amount of resources depends on the size of the school.
Salary depends on the school and the location. NICS has three basic types of schools, Pioneer (Start up), Transitional (Becoming an International school) and International (Established). While each school has different positive aspects that make it unique, the Pioneer and Transitional may require the raising of some support and the International schools will provide a salary. The salary is one that will allow you to live comfortably in that country. By comfortable we mean able to cover all living expenses (Apartment, utilities, clothing, food and able to go out to eat a couple of times each week and still be able to save enough money to come home for Christmas or travel during the summer break).
