Learning Support services are available to students in the Early Learning Center through to Grade 12 and include, where possible, early intervention strategies. We embrace the IBO's updated terminology of 'inclusive education' and, as a School, we use the term ‘learning differences’ in place of 'special needs.' At the present time, Learning Support at VIS is able to cater to students who are intellectually capable of meeting curriculum and assessment standards and may need accommodations and/or modifications to demonstrate their achievement.

With our Primary School and Secondary School Wing, including the Early Learning Centre, 3 playgrounds, as well as the Primary and Secondary Library - our campus is a blend of modern innovation and rich traditions, accompanying our students in their learning journey. The Arts programme holds a long tradition at VIS, our campus is enriching this learning and growing with 7 music rooms, 3 art studios, such as an 220 seat Theatre and outdoor Theatre arena. As Eco School is a matter dear to our heart, our campus provides an Eco-Centre, such as the Eco-Class with exploration pond.
Our campus also supports the many scientific interests of our students with a Food technology centre, 3 Design Laboratories, 7 Science Laboratories, 2 Product Design Studios and 4 Experimental Learning Spaces, the so-called Garden Classrooms. They provide more space for learning and studying, with state-of-the-art equipment with magnetic walls, WIFI and air conditioning for warmer weather conditions. Automatically controlled ECO heating and the shutdown of air conditioning occurs when windows are opened, to minimise energy loss and the unnecessary absorption of carbon dioxide.

For the many sports activities embeded in the curriculum and offered in our Extra-Curricular Programmes, the campus counts up to an all-weather sports area with a total space of 2000 square metres, providing 5 Gymnesia with competition size basketball court, a playing field and running track, such as a Cycling & Running Trail with workout station, table tennis and arboretum in our Panther Sports Dome, a multi-purpose hall that offers the possibility for indoor sports activities during PE lessons and a myriad of after school activities. Energy efficiency is optimised through our central remote controlled LED light system, in accordance with our ECO school objectives.

Vienna International School is a special place. Serving as a second home for our diverse student body, we aim to provide a safe and nurturing environment where every student is accepted, appreciated and successful.
Our goal is to educate the whole child, instilling values such as open-mindedness, resiliency, and problem solving. We aim to create a community of passionate and caring advocates who care about social justice and climate change. We hope our students leave our hallways willing to speak up for themselves, their peers and the less fortunate. Whether your child is interested in the performing arts, athletics or Model United Nations, we have created a space for each student to shine. We have a dedicated staff, well-resourced facilities and a rich offering of co-curricular activities. Each student is treated as an individual at VIS and we go to great lengths to ensure each student has the right pathway for success.
Our motto is inquiring, inspiring and involved and that is what you will find at VIS.
