About Us

Sieff & Marks School is one of the most qualitative and morally minded schools in Jerusalem. The school allows every student to learn and be educated for six years, from grade seven to twelve, with strong belief in her or his abilities.

The school was founded in 1980. It is located at Beit Hakerem neighborhood and is named after Israel Sieff and Simon Marks, two Zionist Jews from Britain.

It is a school in which the academic studies, social interactions and individual student development go together in continued educational process of six years: three under the umbrella of junior high, and three as a natural sequel, in high school.

We hold unique programs of excellence in the academic fields, side by side with social programs. These social experiences promote social involvement and responsibility in the community.

The school grants students with wide education, an experience in many fields of knowledge, diverse cultural know-how and values. We allow every student to maximize their abilities and achievements, by insisting on appropriate limits, suitable conduct and high standards in his or her educational and academic practice.

The academic programs in our school are in part based on the national curriculum and in part are enrichment programs in various topics. Our curriculum contains the exact sciences (physics, chemistry, biology and math), computer engineering, social studies, language arts (Chinese, Arabic, English, French) and art studies (theatre, painting, photography, cinema and music. In Junior high, the students have enrichment programs in which they become familiar with at least two fields of art.

It is a modern school, with Wi-Fi internet connection, several 'smart boards', tablets, mobile computers, multimedia classes, computer rooms and more, as well as elaborated physical education devices that all students use and enjoy. The school's community: students, parents and teachers, have wide communication options. We maintain a website that contains all student data, information about school curriculum and events and much more. A monthly newsletter is distributed by mail, with information about activities, projects and other issues at hand.

The educational staff in Sieff & Marks is intellectual, devoted and committed. Their work is done with a feeling of vocation and purpose.
