The International Philippine School in Alkhobar (IPSA) formerly known as Philippine Embassy School in Alkhobar (PESA) was organized in September 1988 by a group of Filipino parents, who lived in the vicinity of Alkhobar. PESA formally started its academic operation in June 1989 with a Temporary Permit No. 001 s, 1989 issued by the Philippine Department of Education, Culture and Sports (DECS) signed by Secretary Lourdes Quisumbing.

On the 25th of July 1989, the Chief of Philippine Mission in Riyadh, Dr. Mauyag Moh’d Tamano sent a letter to the Saudi Government Official assigned in the Eastern Province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to inform them of the intent to put up a Philippine Embassy School in Alkhobar under the auspices of the Philippine Embassy in Riyadh. The school would follow the Philippine Educational System.

PESA got its recognition after its Temporary Permit granted by the Philippine Government under DECS Recognition No. 001 s. 1995 signed by Secretary Ricardo T. Gloria of the Department of Education, Culture and Sports (DECS) on January 31, 1995. It was awarded its host license to operate on 1415/12/29 (May 8, 1995) with the Saudi Permit No. 2/1937.

In compliance with the permit issued by the Ministry of Education (MOE), where foreign schools should be named as International Schools in addition to the country of nationals served by the school, PESA was renamed in SY 1995-1996 to International Philippine School in Alkhobar (originally acronym “IPS Alkhobar”) and currently known to the Filipino Community in the Kingdom as “IPSA” (Member Saudi Arabian International Schools).

On April 20, 2012, IPS Alkhobar got its renewed Government Recognition No. SP-002, series 2012, signed by Br. Armin A. Luistro – FSC, Secretary of the Department of Education, Philippines.
