The European International School Manila is a private school in Parañaque City, Philippines. It is a joint venture between the German European School Manila and the Lycée Français de Manille (English-speaking French school Manila). Its abbreviation is EIS. Another name is “Eurocampus”, the location of the school in Parañaque.

The Eurocampus was founded in 1992. The British School Manila and the Dutch School Manila were also located on the so-called Eurocampus, which was officially opened on October 3, 1992 by Federal Foreign Minister Klaus Kinkel and his French colleague Georges Kiejman in the presence of Amelita Ramos and Armand Fabella. Manila was the first Eurocampus in the world.

In 1997 the Joint School Conference (JSC) was set up, a body for the discussion of internal Eurocampus educational questions or projects of the schools. The delegates from each school were the principal, a delegate from the school administration, two teachers and a student. School principals and representatives of students and teachers who work on collaborative projects.

In 2004 the European International School was designed and the Eurocampus was renamed EIS Eurocampus.

In its mission statement, the Eurocampus promotes “cultural awareness in terms of intercultural learning and understanding by including all professional, educational and human aspects of cooperation”.
